25 September 2017 Generally Trans-1 is filed for the claiming input tax on the existing stock on which indirect tax like VAT, Excise etc was paid. In your case, the input cannot be taken as the tax was not paid. You need not file Trans-1. Other returns have to be filed.

26 September 2017 If you are composition dealer then you don't want file TRAN 1. Also you can sell the stock and pay the tax as per composition scheme...
