I have some following quries(assume implementation of GST on 1st July 2017)(Trader-Not Manufacturer)

1) Suppose I am having stock in hand of Rs.50lacs aprox on 30th June 2017 on which current VAT is 5% but under GST new rates is 18% will I be able to get any exemption in such case?

2) Suppose I am having clossing stock of Rs.50lacs from which 30lacs were purchased from manufacturer who charges Excise duty and CST against C Form on products in Invoice but till now I am not getting Credit on Excise duty and CST against C Form as I was registered under VAT only. But now will I be able to get Credit of Excise duty and CST against C Form on Stock in hand?
