The scrap has been defined by section 206C(11) explanation (b).

Scrap means waste and scrap from manufacturing or mechancial working of materials which is definitely not usable as such because of breakage, cutting up, wear and other reasons.

Dear Mr. P K Sharma,

Always give full facts, and your own observation while initiating discussions.

Your query is silent about type of material sold by you which required TCS,  the period of dispute, rates prevailing at that time etc.

The reason why you deducted a@ 1.113% and reason why the revenue is demanding @ 2.2667%

Please go through S. 206C, and find out applicable provision and rate of tax. You can find section and  section wise case laws on tmi.  Come with your results of studies so that further brain storming can take place in the Forum.
