PL LET ME KNOW IF THE FINISHED PRODUCT IS TAX EXEMPT WHETHER WE CAN PURCHASE RAW MATERIALS FOR MANUFACTURING PURPOSE UNDER CST RATE. WE CAN SAVE 9.5% TAX IF WE PURCHASE THE ITEMS FROM OUTSIDE STATE. THAT IS WHY, THIS DOUBT. PL CLARIFY

Data:
The rate of VAT of Paddy 4% (i.e raw material)
The rate of VAT of chuda -exempted (i.e.the final product)
C.S.T. NIL
State: Orissa

If a person purchases paddy from within the state then he has to pay VAT @ 4% and thereafter he sells the final product which is exempted from tax.

But what happen when the same person will purchase paddy from any neighbouring state, assuming that the rate of CST is 0%.
a)whether he will have to pay VAT on the purchase price if it is purchased from outside state. what are its pros & cons.

Whether VAT is applicable on Coronary Stents which is used in Heart Treatment. I think this is under Life Saving Device and It should be exempted. In Union Territory the VAT is exempted on Coronary Stent but what about Gujarat Maharashtra and other State.
