26 November 2009 Dear Shri Agarwal,
Pls refer to Rule 4AA of the CST ( Bomaby Rules) 1957. If you are not registered in AP then you may issue a Mah C Form under proviso to Sub rule 1. However you will have to prove that you are not registered under CST in AP.ans to query 1.
Further you have to maintain the LR documents or otherwise Mah VAT authorities would claim that the goods have come to Mah & that they have moved to AP & in absence of F Form they would be treated as Inter State Sale & tax would be payable on it under Sec 8 (1) or (2) as applicable.
Ans to query 2 & 3
On query no 4 it is stated that there is a deeming provision in Sec 6A treating a transaction without F Form as inter state sale. However there is a lot of scope for litigation if the consignee is the same company.
