[Guest]

With C form the rate of tax will be 2%. Without C form kerala's VAT rates will be applicable. For example if the KVAT on scrap item is 12.50% then without C form, it will be 12.50%.

AI Summary

CST rate for inter-state scrap sales reduced with C form; without C form state VAT applies. Rate of tax on inter state sale of scrap from Kerala to Tamil Nadu depends on documentary compliance: where the purchaser furnishes a C form, central sales tax applies at 2%. In the absence of a C form, the vendor must charge Kerala's applicable VAT rate on the scrap; the VAT rate varies by item (for example, if the KVAT rate for the scrap is 12.50%, that rate applies without a C form).
