Hail the CPI(M) led LF govt. They have demonstrated how free and proprietery softwares can co-exist! Sebin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Parameswaran D <[email protected]> Date: Sat, Jan 3, 2009 at 10:12 AM Subject: [fsug-tvm] Microsoft , Tata , KVAT and Me To: [email protected] Anybody visited the www.keralataxes.in for VAT e-filing ? >From 1st of Jan 2009 onwards e-filing of VAT returns is compulsory for all the dealers in Kerala. Please go through the site and see the documentation and procedures for e-flining.. Site is developed for and by the Microsoft Community. Govt has arranged e-filing from Akshaya Centers for dealers who have no internet facility at "Free Of Cost" (Thanks to "Microsoft Unlimited Potential Programme") My Problem I request OpenSource community of Kerala to (just forget about the FSFS Conference conducted by Govt last month and) address my issue Details of Sales and Purchase needs to be updated in MS Excel format. Template file "SALES_PURCHASE_INVOICE.XLS" is available for download in the site. The data then needs to be validated with the excel macro , and macro will create a Text File (sales.txt without headers) in "C:\KVATS" folder, for Upload . This macro will not work in OpenOffice Calc 3 . In Calc I can save the data as a Text file, but it is not coming in the required format . As e-TDS preparation and validation utility (freely available) , KVAT return validation and preparation utility needs to be developed. but immediately OOO Calc file with macro to be released. In this recession period a solution for the above will be helpful for Traders. Regards, Parameswaran D --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Freedom is the only law".
