AI Summary

Interstate Sale Validity Confirmed: CST Billing Permitted Under Section 3(a) of CST Act 1956, Despite Same-State Registration A manufacturer in Maharashtra billed a dealer in Kerala with 2% CST charges against Form C for goods dispatched to a site in Kerala, accepted by a purchaser also in Kerala. The purchaser questioned the validity of CST billing, arguing that if both seller and purchaser are registered in the same state, CST billing is not applicable. A response clarified that under Section 3(a) of the CST Act, 1956, the initial sale must be interstate, and subsequent sales can be intrastate, thus permitting CST billing in this scenario.
