CHHATTISGARH COMMERCIAL TAX ACT 1994

This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by the Madhya Pradesh Vat Act, 2002 (No. 20 of 2002), s.72, as printed in the Madhya Pradesh copy of that Act: "The Madhya Pradesh Vanijyik Kar Adhiniyam 1994 (No.5 of 1995) shall stand repealed on the date of coming into force of this Act"; it may still apply to matters that began before then.

Sec. 19 : Composition of tax by certain registered dealers (1)(a) The Commissioner may, subject to such restrictions and conditions as may be prescribed, permit any registered dealer, who carries on wholly or partly the business of supplying goods in the course of execution of works contract entered into by him, to pay in lieu of tax payable by him under this Act a lumpsum at such rate, not exceeding 15 per cent, as may be prescribed, determined in the prescribed manner, by way of composition. (b) The provisions of Sections 26, 27, 42 and 43 shall not apply to a registered dealer to whom permission to pay a lumpsum by way of composition is granted under clause (a) in relation to the period for and the goods in respect of which such composition of tax has been made and who complies with the restrictions and conditions prescribed under the said clause. (2) For the purpose of determination of the lumpsum by way of composition under clause (a) of sub-section (1), the State Government may prescribe different rates for different kinds of contracts.
