2023 (12) TMI 297 - HC - VAT and Sales TaxClassification of goods - home UPS which is marketed / advertised as meant for use in homes - to be classified under S.No. 68 of Part B of the First Schedule to the TNVAT Act which covers Information Technology products notified by the Government or not - HELD THAT:- This Court finds that the impugned order has been made in perfunctory manner and thus liable to be set aside. However there is lack of clarity as to whether the product namely the UPS in question is capable of being used along with Information Technology products. The matters are remanded back to the assessing authority for the limited purpose of examining whether these UPS sold by the petitioner are capable of being used with Information Technology products. If it is found that it is capable, the assessing authority shall levy tax at 5% treating it as falling under S.No. 68 of Part B of the First Schedule to the TNVAT Act, though it is capable of multiple uses and some of such use being general in nature and not in relation to Computers / Information Technology. The above exercise shall be carried out after providing the petitioners an opportunity of hearing and the same shall be completed within a period of 8 weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this Order. Petition disposed off.
