AI Summary

Buyer Challenges 2% Sales Tax on Transit Sale Without E1 Form; Questions Supplier's Responsibility and Documentary Evidence Validity. A business purchased coke fines from Rourkela and sold them in transit to a company in Orissa, using a C form but did not receive an E1 form from the supplier due to pending sales tax issues. The sales tax officer imposed a 2% CST and interest, leading to an appeal by the buyer. The buyer inquired whether documentary evidence suffices without an E1 form and whether they can sue the supplier for not providing it. A response indicated that statutory forms cannot be withheld by the VAT/Sales Tax Department, regardless of pending tax matters.
