Dear Manoj,

Please clarify the following,

1) r u  the direct exporter ?

2) U have purchased the goods from a vendor by issuing form C not form H ? and the agreement with the vendor was  with form H

3)  U have paid the 2% to ur vendor also ?

regards,

Jafer

The Company(X) who purchases from a Mfr.(Y) against E1 Sales and sends the goods to a company(Z)ie.(Z) placed the Purchase Order on (X), since X as trader purchase from (Y) and instruct him to send the goods to (Z) by endorsing the LR(Lorry Receipt)in favour of(Z).

Step1: Y will raise a Invoice Charging CST-2%(goods can be exmepted also in that State) & issue Form-E1 to X and Collect Form-C from X but material will be sent to Z in another State.

Step2: X(Seller) will raise a Invoice with no Tax on Z(Buyer) and surrender the Endorsed LR to (Z) to take delivery and collect Form-C.

The condition for E1 Sales is All the 3 parties involved should be Registered Dealers, The Goods should be registered in their CST Certificate,The goods movement should be Interstate, LR should be endorsed and the first sale can be CST-2% or CST-Exempted.

First the product u have purchased must be listed in your CST Registration Certificate.
You have a Export order and purchased the required goods from a vendor against Form-H.

Have you exported the same product directly to your foreign Buyer?

 If you have exported,

1.  u have said collected Form-C instead of Form-H form I assume its from ST Department.
2.  Why u have wasted ur money of 2%  it’s a loss for u,
3.  Since u have already issued Form-C and paid CST-2%,

There is nothing wrong in (exporting/selling locally/Interstate or used by u for Mfr.) the purchased goods. Since The Purchase Invoice will not have the Tax Amount so you raise a Cr.Note or request Dr. Note from Vendor for the Tax amount and attach the same with the Purchase Invoice and you declare this as CST Purchase. You can show the Sale as Export Sale.

 The Form-H in CST Act is meant for benefit to Exporter to promote Exports and get more Foreign Exchange in to India.

I have given the explanation assuming that you have purchased the goods from the Vendor and exported.
So u have collected the From C instead of Form-H from Your ST department and and issued to the Vendor.
Since its exported so you can show ur sale as Exports in your ST Return
