Import and resale

Sir,

This is Ansari from Cochin of Kerala.This time i plan to start an overseas trade, more specifically a commercial import.That's import to Kerala and resale within Kerala.

* First case:Import and readily resale
------------------------------------
Could you furnish more information on
the type of registration i needed whether it's CST or VAT please?As i intend to make wholesale supply to one, will there be a scope of VAT since, to best of my knowledge, VAT is meant for points of sale.

* Second case:import and make an assembly here so that a manufacturing is taken place
------------------------------------------
If i assemble the parts of product here, then whichever is needed, CST or VAT?

I hope you get what is in my mind, that avoiding any registration is much better.

In conclusion, Whichever registration is needed for a commercial importer who make it for a resale?

If you could let me know that for a VAT registration, how can i avoid the security deposit, or suspend later?
