CST return

828 views 1 replies

I am in the boat building industry and during the FY 2008-09 (from April 2008 onwards) we have charged and remitted CST @ 10% (without 'C' form) for interstate sales (Kerala VAT rates are 4% and 12.5%). Can we file revised returns now and claim a refund of the excess tax remitted?

In Karnataka statutory time limit for revising the returns is 6 months.  However, in practice, the dept. has been accepting the revised returns even if they are filed the time limit.

In the present case, since tax paid is more by 6% in case of goods liable for tax at 4% and as the excess paid would have been collected from the buyers, the department may forfeit the excess payment since the same is collected from the buyers.
