15 December 2015 In this case, goods are purchased in the state of Gujarat locally and transporting to another state for the purpose of personal use.

When you are purchasing and taking delivery locally i.e. in Gujarat, the question of CST does not arise, unless you are a CST dealer and the 'sale documents' specify accordingly. Since, you are the ultimate consumer and not a CST dealer, the benefit of CST rate will not be available to you and have to pay at local VAT rates. The bill is important to carry during the transport of the goods.
