17 September 2008 The state Governments have power ( by virtue of the indian constitution) to collect Entry tax on the value of goods imported to the state either from other states or from abroad.Prima facie the action of Karnataka state seems to be correct.

17 September 2008 With due respect, I disagree with Mr. B. Chakrapani in followings;

1. No state (Karnataka) can collect entry tax on goods imported in some other state.

2. No entry tax is leviable if the goods are imported from out side the Country.

I will welcome, arguments of Mr. Chakrapani.

17 September 2008 Thank you very much Mr.Agarwalla.Your opinion is absolutely correct.My opinion is due to a mistaken understanding. Even the kerala high court decision on this matter also didn't come to my mind while answering the question.Thanks once again.
