At the end of the year or till finalisation of Assessment he could not get the 'C' declarations from the buyer. Now he suppose to remit higher rate of tax but also he shall be charged interest from day of filing return ?

Hi,
Yes in case of non submission of C forms ., the differential tax plus the interest would be levied for the same.

It is not the question whether returns filed or not? It is the question that the dealer had filed returns stating that the sales are against form 'C' and at the time of assessment he could file 'C' forms. In these circumstances whether the dealer have to remit interest on differencial rate of tax or not?

Hi,
PFA CST Act, please refer to Chapter 3,Section 9, 2B. Once you have not submitted C forms, it is implied that you ought to pay tax as per VAT rates, and as you have not paid the same, it will be treated as delayed payment and interest will be charged accordingly. The above citation is perfectly alright.
