ALL major mobile brands excluding Sony and LG are guilty, the brands sell to the e businesses at the lowest possible prices far below their market.
Modus Operandi
THE MOBILE COMPANIES HAVe A COMMON PRICING FOR THEIR PRODUCTS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.
THE VAT RATES VARY FROM 3% TO 14.5%.
NATURALLY THE PRE VAT RATES IN THE HIGH TAX STRUCTURE STATE WOULD BE ADVANTAGEOUS BY 11 TO 12%.
A TRANSFER FROM HIGH TAX RATESTATETO ALOW TAX RATE STATE WILL AT MOST ENTAIL 2% CENTRAL SALES TAX.
