Thanks Sir, But i wanted to know, if VAT will not be adjusted under IT:
(i) an amount already paid as a VAT to the Govt is not my income and only expenditure (tax) then should i deduct the amount of VAT from my income?
(ii) Whether Tax (Income)should be payable on Tax (Value Added) i.e. double tax payment Tax on Tax?
(iii) How can i save VAT amount, pl suggest.

vat or any other tax other than income tax in shape of TDS or Advance Tax as such can be adjusted under income tax.
