CLARIFICATION REGARDING SECTION 23 OF THE SALES TAX ACT, 1990.

I am directed to refer to the subject noted above and to say that Collectorate of Sales Tax & Central Excise, (East) Karachi, vide letter C.No.8(0121066002)ST/EC/Ref/2001, dated 21.10.2002 has informed the Board that some registered persons who are engaged in multiple business activities are issuing Sales Tax invoices with same serial number but with different dates to depict various commodities. He has further stated that certain units issue same serial numbered invoices with the alphabet corresponding to the business activity e.g. “Y” for yarn, ”D” for dying etc.

However, keeping in view that such practice is existing in the filed, it is advised that invoices issued in such manner up to 20.11.2002 may be accepted provided no serious contravention is involved and conditions laid down under section 73 of the Sales Tax Act, 1990 have been fulfilled.
