### 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.
