hi Ashish ji, so what you did, paid 15%+13%! Some says for software, which is a product, one need to pay only 1.5% TDS and 13% reverse VAT.
For Payment Purpose 15% TDS is to be deducted. However Pro Forma Invoice in itself is not the final Invoice. Only after receiving the Final Invoice can we Book the Expense and Apply 13% Reverse VAT & TDS of 15% can be claimed.
I would like to know that how to make payment of VAT bills by Company after deducting TDS on it.
Example:
VAT applicable amount – 10,000/-
VAT – 13% of 10,000/- = 1,300/-
Total amount – 11,300/-
Option:1
TDS =1.5% of 11,300/- =170/-
Payment =11300-1.5% of 11300 = 11,130/-
or
Option:2
TDS =1.5% of 10000 = 150/-
Payment =11300-150 = 11,150/-
Which one is correct one. Please suggest me
1.5% of taxable amount 1.5% of 10,000/-
option 2 is coorect
option 2 is correct.
Option:2
option 2
Option 2 is correct.

I would like to get a help regarding TDS on Goods Transport Service:
My company purchases big quantity of coals from the VAT registered vendors for which those vendors issue TAX invoice. However, the coal is transported from vendors’ location to our location by a Third Company which basically deals in transporting such materials and the Third company issues a normal PAN invoice (the amount of invoice ranges from 55K-95K).
Similarly, after the coal reaches our location, we have to pay extra amount for unloading the coal from Trucks.
So, what shall be the TDS implication on these 2 cases?
a) Transportation of Coal from Vendor to our locaiton,
b) Unloading wages paid.
2.5% tds applicable for Goods transport Service
For Transportation of Coal 2.5% TDS should be deducted. For Wages for labor 1% TDS is to be deducted.

Request for the TDS deduction Receipt and verification of TDS deduction at Nepal. You can claim that Tax has already been deducted in Nepal by showing the document when paying you annual tax in India. The amount of tax deduction in Nepal can be deducted from your annual tax payment requirement in India.
Is there any difference on deducting tax for service and goods bill?
The usual practice is that, for service nature we have to deduct TDS. But, for goods bill TDS is not Deducted.
Freight paid to transport of goods by indian to nepal :- mode of transport indian railway or truck by transporter companies is indian company or individual.
question is what about TDS provision……
2nd. in nepal hording bored is revenue expenses or capital expense..
If the freight service is from any foreign nation to custom office of Nepal only then we should not deduct TDS of such nature as the facility received was beyond the boundary of Nepal. If the transportation service is for within Nepal then 2.5% TDS should be deducted irrespective of whether they are registered in VAT or not.
If we purchase goods for the organization and if we have done certain program and we made it from hotel. In that case the amount is nominal we get VAT BILL. So in this case we have to raised tds 1.5% or not.
For TDS of such case on 1.5% TDS of sufficient, since there is VAT Bill.
