The issue a controversial one. It is the movement of goods which governs the applicability of local VAT (ST) or CST. From the query it appears that movement of goods is within the state of Delhi. The the movement of goods and occasion of movement of goods both are in Delhi and predetermined, local VAT may be applicable. However, to my mind contrary views are possible, a detailed brainstorming is required for this issue. I like you to put your view and understanding on the issue for the benefit of members at large.
