02 August 2025 Got it! Let me break this down for you clearly:

---

### Scenario:

* Your firm is **registered in Jaipur, Rajasthan** (seller).
* Purchaser is **registered in Delhi** (buyer).
* Goods to be delivered at **Jodhpur, Rajasthan** (within Rajasthan).

---

### What type of sale is this?

* **Invoice to Delhi buyer** (out-of-state buyer).
* **Delivery in Rajasthan** (within your state).

---

### Tax treatment:

1. Since **delivery is inside the seller’s state (Rajasthan)**, this is treated as **intra-state sale** for VAT purposes, even though the buyer is out-of-state.
2. **You should charge VAT**, not CST, because goods are delivered within Rajasthan.
3. Buyer **does NOT issue C Form** here, because C Form is for interstate purchases.
4. The invoice is a **VAT invoice** at the applicable **Rajasthan VAT rate**.

---

### What if delivery was outside Rajasthan?

* If delivery was to Delhi (outside Rajasthan), then it would be **interstate sale** and **CST** would be applicable.
* In that case, buyer issues **C Form**, and CST is charged at **2% or applicable rate**.

---

### What is E1 sale?

* **E1 sale** means intra-state sale where goods are supplied within the same state but invoiced to a buyer in another state.
* Usually, E1 sales occur when the place of business of the buyer is in another state but delivery is within the seller’s state.
* For E1 sales, **VAT applies**, not CST.

---

### Summary table for your case:

| Situation | Tax to charge | Form issued by buyer |
| ------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Invoice to Delhi, delivery in Jodhpur (Rajasthan) | VAT (Rajasthan VAT) at applicable rate | No C Form |
| Invoice to Delhi, delivery in Delhi | CST at applicable rate (usually 2%) | C Form |

---

If you want, I can help you draft the invoice or explain the process to get C Forms or VAT invoices. Let me know!
