CST : means Central Sales tax i.e materials are moved from one state to another state and therefore based on the local rates the CST is collected @ 2% against C forms.

VAT: VAlue added Tax 5% .This is collected for intra sale means within the state and every seller has to collect 5% till it reaches the consumer.
