AI Summary

Security and surety bonds required for VAT/CST registration, though some online registration routes waive deposit temporarily.
Applicants for VAT/CST registration must furnish either a security bond or a surety bond as a condition of registration; these bonds assure payment of tax, interest or penalty if the registered dealer defaults. A surety bond is executed by two registered dealers in the same State who undertake secondary liability. Certain online registration routes may temporarily waive the need to deposit security subject to portal rules.
