California Pizza Kitchen
VAT Overcharging

Cafes, Bars, Restaurants

We had food for Rs. 830 and soft drink for Rs. 85 totalling to Rs. 915 without any taxes.

On this we were first charged a VAT at 12.5% on entire amount of Rs 915 and then again an arbitrary VAT at 20% of Rs. 18.70 (supposedly on sof-drink)

Hence we paid a total VAT of Rs. 132.82 on a food & non-alcoholic beverage (diet coke) bill of Rs. 915.00

Effectively for a can of diet coke of Rs. 85, the VAT was charged twice at 12.5% 20%.

When I complained to the restaurant manager, I was told this is how the management has said to charge. This seemed a standard practice at the restaurant to over charge VAT on non-alcoholic & alcoholic beverages.

They are clearly fleecing consumers with VAT overcharging.

In addition, restaurant also charged service tax on service charge at 33.3%. I'm not sure if it is the correct service tax rate.
