Trade Cir.15 T of 2015                                                                                                                                                <\/p>\n

As per the provisions of section 86(3) of the MVAT Act
\n2002 a dealer, liable to pay tax under the Act, is required to issue to the
\npurchaser either a tax invoice or a bill or a cash memo. Such tax invoice, bill
\nor cash memo should be serially numbered, signed and dated by him or his
\nservant, manager or agent. A counterfoil or duplicate of such bill etc. is
\nrequired to be preserved for a period of eight years from the end of the year
\nin which sale takes place. If the value of the goods sold in a single
\ntransaction is rupees fifty or less, then bill or cash memo may not be issued. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. It has been observed that now a days many dealers issue
\nbills on thermal paper. Thermal paper bills do not last for a long time and
\nprinted matter on such bill fades away in few days. The consumers\/buyers and
\nthe consumer organisations have brought this fact to the notice of the
\nGovernment. The consumers face difficulty especially when the product carries a
\nguarantee\/warranty for a certain period. Similarly in the absence of a legible
\nbill it also becomes difficult to approach the Consumer Redressal Forum. <\/p>\n

3. In view of the above, the following instructions are
\nhereby being issued: <\/p>\n

1) All the dealers, who are liable to pay tax, shall
\ndiscontinue the practice of issuing invoice, bill, cash memo on thermal paper. <\/p>\n

2) All the dealers, liable to pay tax shall issue either a
\ntax invoice, bill or cash memo on a normal paper so that such a bill and the
\nmatter printed thereon lasts for a period of at least 8 years. <\/p>\n

3) All the dealers are informed to follow these instructions
\nscrupulously. <\/p>\n
