Applicability of State VAT or CST


  • Contents

Query:

Ours is Gujarat base Engineering goods manufacturing company say ‘X’ and we export 99% of our final product, and no finished goods sale in Gujarat (except some scrap generated during manufacturing), procures raw material from Maharashtra by placing Order on Maharashtra Supplier say “A”, and instruct him to deliver the goods directly to a job-worker located in Maharashtra say ‘J’ without bringing the raw material in Gujarat. Raw Material supplier ’A’raises Invoice on us mentioning buyer as ‘X’ and consignee as ‘J’ after charging 2% CST against Form-C.

Job-worker ‘J’ sends us the processed raw material to us ‘X’ in Gujarat after charging Job work charges.

1. We have been advised that we cannot purchase the goods against From-C as the delivery does not occasion the movement of goods from Maharashtra to Gujarat. Is this correct?

2. Whether CST charged by supplier ‘A’ of the raw material is correct? Or we have to pay Maharashtra VAT ?

3. Whether the transaction between our company and job worker falls under works contract?

4. What should we do to minimize tax burden ?

I seek your valuable advice in the matter, do reply please.

I will answer only first two questions:

1. We have been advised that we cannot purchase the goods against From-C as the delivery does not occasion the movement of goods from Maharashtra to Gujarat. Is this correct?

Yes. It is correct since there is no interstate movement of the goods from the raw material supplier to the job worker both of whom happen to be within the State of Maharashtra.

2. Whether CST charged by supplier ‘A’ of the raw material is correct? Or we have to pay Maharashtra VAT ?

Raw material supplier should charge Maharashtra VAT only and not CST.

Dear Manish and Suresh,

As discuss earlier this matter cannot be replied in one or two liner. Even, reply was submitted without giving any reference and understanding the Section 3 (a) of the CST Act, 1956,and judgments pronounced by various High Courts and Apex Court .

Time and again, we hereby submit that it is bit complicated matter and should be handled by experts.
