vat means value added tax at each and every stage where value added of goods, while sales tax which collect on state or district level tax where goods transfer from one district/ state to another..
THE VALUE ADDED TAX IS A FORM A INDIRECT TAX THAT IS IMPOSED AT DIFFERENT STAGES OF PRODUCTION ON GOODSAND SERVICES. WHERE AS SALES TAX IS VALUED AT TOTAL VALUE OF GOODS AND SERVICES PURCHASED.
VAT is applied on each stage of supply whereas Sales Tax is levied on Final Consumer
In my point of view:
Sales tax: The final consumer pays this.
VAT: All purchasers pay this.
“VAT” meaning “value addition tax” and “value addition tax” mean in every stage tax value will be add at the time of sale.
Example of VAT:
Suppose one product which is manufacture by Amjad and Sale to Zain person, Zain person sale to Faisal person, and then Faisal person sale to Khalid person and so on.
Amjad Manufacturer: Pay sales tax and adjust input.
Zain Seller: Increase value of product for earn profit and pay tax and adjust input.
Faisal Seller: buy from Zain and Increase value of product for earn profit and pay tax and adjust input.
Khalid Seller: buy from Faisal and Increase value of product for earn profit and pay tax and adjust input.
When, when value will be adding in original price every will pay a tax and adjust input.
Example of General Sales Tax:
While the other sales tax which is pay by final consumer, he will consume this product and will not add profit in original price and will not sale again and re-calculate this for new sales tax amount. So, this is not called VAT because he is not adding.
I hope this is easy to understand.
