Dear experts,As we applied registration under tnvat and cst acts of one of my client registered under partnership act 1932 and having registered office located in Delhi state. And now they got construction order from tamilnadu for which we have applied registration. However, the authority concern deny to register the firm as a dealer in tamilnadu and they have taken the rented premises and submitted the application along with all necessary documents which is required as per act. Whereas the authority concern insisting to submit seperate partnership deed for tamilnadu state and same is required to get registered with the register of firms.

Even though without seperate partnership deed the authority is not ready to register the firm.can any one give advice how to defend the authority, is there any supporting judegements.
