02 August 2025 Hey! Let's break down your transaction under VAT/CST rules:

---

### Your transaction details:

* **Seller (Party A)**: Mumbai (Maharashtra)
* **Buyer name**: Mumbai (Maharashtra)
* **Consignee (goods delivered to)**: Madhya Pradesh (different state)

---

### Key points:

1. **Is this an interstate sale?**

* Even though buyer is registered in Mumbai (same state), goods are delivered to Madhya Pradesh (different state).
* Under CST law, sale is considered **interstate** if goods are transported from one state to another.
* So, **this is an interstate sale** because goods are sent out of Maharashtra.

2. **Which form to use?**

* Since it's an interstate sale, **you can issue the invoice under Form C (or E1)** under the CST Act.
* **Form C** is used when goods are sold for resale, use in manufacture or processing, etc., to claim concessional CST rate (usually 2%).
* **Form E1** is a declaration for inter-state transfer of goods not involving sale, like branch transfers.

3. **What should you do?**

* If buyer provides you **Form C**, you can charge CST at concessional rate.
* If buyer does **not** provide Form C, you must charge **CST at full rate**.
* Make sure Form C is obtained timely to avoid issues.

---

### Summary Table:

| Buyer Location | Consignee Location | Sale Type | Form to be used | CST Rate |
| -------------- | ------------------ | ---------- | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| Maharashtra | Madhya Pradesh | Interstate | Form C (or E1) | Concessional 2% (with Form C), else full CST rate |

---

Let me know if you want a sample format of Form C or any other help!
