SUBJECT: -

INPUT TAX ADJUSTMENT ON ELECTRICITY BILLS.

I am directed to refer to the above noted subject and to say that a number of representations have been received regarding practical difficulties faced by taxpayers in claiming input adjustment against electricity bills.  Keeping in view the genuine problems of the taxpayers, it was decided to remove these difficulties by amending the Special Procedure for Collection and Payment of Sales Tax (Electric Power) Rules, 2000.

2. Necessary amendments have been made accordingly in SRO 124(I)/2000, dated 15th March, 2002 vide SRO 344(I)/2002, dated 15.6.2002 (copy enclosed). Now, in cases where the registered person’s name is not printed on the electricity bills, input adjustment may still be allowed provided that:

(a) his registration number is duly printed on the bill; and
(b) the address mentioned in the electricity bill is the same as that declared by the registered person to the Collector of Sales Tax.

3. No input adjustment will be allowed in case the registration number is not printed on the bill.  The registered persons may, therefore, make arrangements for printing of the registration number.  All pending cases may be decided accordingly.

(Dr. Ashfaq Ahmed Tunio)
Secretary (ST-L&P)
