26 October 2009 Hi Mahinder,

You can transfer stock to your branch in other state and can sell from ur Branch there.

However I think you have not much sale in state A and the State Govt. is not getting much revenue from your company.

Moreover all your purchase is from other states so; STO developed a tendency to disallow your stock transfer.

If you can produce all the documents, like F Form and consignment notes to prove the physical transfer STO can't legally disallow and even if he does you can go to appeal.

26 October 2009 Dear Mr Mahinder,

Do not mix up issues. Your purchases could be from any source. As far as your sales is concerned, you are stock transferring certain goods from State A to State B. Then from State B you are selling these goods to customers locally in State B under loca VAT regn. / tax invoice. This is perfectly alright, as long as a bulk quantity of "off-the shelf" or "standard goods" are being stock transferred and then sold, as a business practice.

What is not acceptable to your STO (RIGHTLY SO) is that in pursuance of a specific contract, you are stock transferring goods and then selling those goods to particular customer.

This is not accptable, as the customer has been identified at the time of manufacture itself. Hence as per section 9 (1) of the CST Act, the State A has the locus standi to tax the nature of transaction explained by you.

Thanks.

Sarathy
