WCT means Works Contract Tax. When property of goods
transferred in execution of works contract with the help of
labour and service components, it falls under the catagory
of WCT.

Like Builing construction, Road, Dam, Power Station,
manufecturing of shirts and so on.

As u know government has intention/power to levy tax on
Sale of goods only. and In order to comply this
constitutional requirement what ever labour/service portion
invovled in contact shall be deducted to arrive at the
