Dear All,
Please tell me about VAT refund rules. If last year's invoice is missing from the accounting records, can we still claim the VAT benefit? Please provide me with the rules and detailed information regarding this matter.
Thanks,

I went through the GO, but I am unable to understand the contents. As I understand, the nominee of the members receives a fixed amount (Rs. 57,000???), in case of the member's death.
I would like to know: What would be the exact effect or impact of this amendment. Seniors, please respond.

Dear vkokamthankar,
EDLI is the abbreviation of Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme. Here, deposit means the average deposit in EPF. When an employee dies while in service, the family will get some compensation based on his/her deposit. To get the claim, the employer has to pay 0.5% as its premium.
Determination of Deposit:
The average deposit of the last twelve months as well as the total service will be calculated, and whichever is less will be taken for the calculation.
Determination of Compensation:
Up to Rs. 50,000/-, he will receive the actual amount. Beyond the first Rs. 50,000/-, he will receive 40% of the rest; subject to a ceiling of Rs. 100,000/-.
For example:
a) Deposit Rs. 100,000
For the 1st 50,000 - 50,000, Next 50,000 - 20,000
Total - Rs. 70,000 (will receive the full amount as it does not exceed 100,000).
b) Deposit Rs. 200,000
For the 1st 50,000 - 50,000, Next 150,000 - 60,000
Total - Rs. 110,000 (will receive Rs.100,000 only as it exceeds 100,000).
c) Deposit Rs. 300,000
For the 1st 50,000 - 50,000, Next 250,000 - 100,000
Total - Rs. 150,000 (will receive Rs. 100,000 only as it exceeds 100,000/-).
However, there are better insurance schemes with the same premium, even without considering the deposits. With these types of better benefits, some organizations are exempted from EDLI. Instead, they provide in lieu of EDLI. There are schemes that specify more than Rs. 100,000/- for natural death and double benefits for accidental death.
