Hi,

Yesterday I brought jackets and sweat shirts from Arrow on 30% sale but the shop keeper charged 5% on the sale price claiming it is the new tax law.

Calculation

Sweat Shirts - 2199 - 659.70(30% Discount) = 1539.30
Jackets - 2999 - 899.70(30% Discount) = 2099.30

VAT Tax: 5% on 3638.60 = 181.94

Total Bill Amount : 3638.60+181.94= Rs.3820.54

Is it rightful on the shopkeeper to charge tax on already taxed product? Please advice.
