h VAT, Central Excise & Service Tax and TRANS-2 for those who are newly registered under GST laws. – Reply By Ganeshan Kalyani – The Reply = Sir, branches are considered as extended warehouse of the factory. Though you have received goods from factory under stock transfer invoice but actually those goods have suffered excise duty. Also, since goods were manufactured by your factory and material was dispatched to branches, so the goods lying at the breaches are duty paid and are considered to have excise invoice i.e. duty paid documents. Hence , in my view you are eligible to claim 100% credit of the duty paid. – Reply By Ganeshan Kalyani – The Reply = Sir, i welcome views of the expert collegues in this regard.
