Thank you sir.
But he is auguing that based on TIN number C form can be issued as he hasn't applied for CST regn at all. I think nobody can charge CST without having CST regn number. Can i issue 'C form' from my side for availing concessionl rate of 2% CST to that trader, who does not have the CST regn number? Request you to clarify. Thanks again in advance.

In India, the 'C' Form is used for interstate purchases at concessional rates of CST (Central Sales Tax) under the CST Act, 1956. Here’s how it generally works:
1. **CST Registration**: To issue a 'C' Form, the purchasing dealer must have a valid CST registration number. Without a CST registration number, a dealer cannot collect CST from their customers at concessional rates or issue 'C' Forms.
2. **Applicability of CST**: CST is applicable on interstate sales and purchases. If a dealer engages in interstate sales or purchases, they are required to register under CST if their turnover exceeds the threshold limit specified by the state.
3. **Validity of 'C' Form**: The 'C' Form is issued by the purchasing dealer to the selling dealer for interstate purchases. It declares that the goods purchased will be resold or used in manufacturing and not for personal consumption. This form allows the purchasing dealer to avail of the concessional CST rate (usually 2% or lower, depending on the state).
4. **Conditions for Issuing 'C' Form**: The selling dealer should validate the 'C' Form based on the purchasing dealer’s CST registration details. If the purchasing dealer does not have a CST registration number, they are not eligible to issue or use 'C' Forms.
5. **Consequences of Incorrect Issuance**: Issuing a 'C' Form without a valid CST registration number is incorrect and may lead to penalties and legal consequences under the CST Act. Tax authorities can scrutinize such transactions during assessments.
In summary, without a CST registration number, a dealer cannot charge CST at concessional rates or issue 'C' Forms. The trader you mentioned cannot issue 'C' Forms based solely on their TIN (Taxpayer Identification Number) if they do not have a CST registration. Therefore, you should not issue a 'C' Form from your side to avail the concessional CST rate to a trader who does not have a valid CST registration number. It’s essential to comply with the CST Act’s requirements to avoid any legal or tax implications.
