A seller is seeking clarification on whether an interstate sale of a mould to a manufacturer, made against a C form in 2014-15, is valid. The Excise & Taxation department is refusing the C form and demanding local VAT. Advice suggests that C forms are indeed valid for capital goods like moulds, which are considered machinery parts used in production.
I had sold a mould to a manufacturer against C form in the year 2014-15 and deposited the CST @ 2%. The Excise & Taxation department not accepting the C form against this sale and forced to us deposited the tax as local Vat tax rate,
Is interstate sale of mould against c form is invalid ? or not kindly provide any clarification.

It's valid C Form can also be issued for purchase of capital items/goods i.e. Machinery etc. and/or machinery parts used in the production of final product. Mould will be part of machinery eligible for C form.
