we are working in west bengal and as per practice here, we have learnt the following

1) go through the vat/cst returns and reconcile the same iwth your P/L accounts and balance sheet. keep accounts ready, viz cash book / ledger, purchase and sales vouchers(bills), job works (works contract also)vouchers/bills, both inward and outward..

2) if any diff is found, then keep reconcillation statement, with supporting documents.

3) establishment address/trade licence, Profession tax enrollment payments. bank statements.

4) incentives/ or govt aids received with the documents.

5) tax deposit challans and returns./ assessment memo for last two years completed.

6) form C/F/H record for inward and outward with registers.

9) if working under E-1/E-2 then complete records of such transactinos.

10) if exporting goods direct or indirectly, then complete set of records maintained from order to payment level.

most important 

department will insist on two vital points

a) to establish the ratio of input and output , value wise and quantity wise, 

b) to ascertain the quantity of bye products/scrap generated and sold, if same is not accounted properly then they will report the doff of input and output quantity as "additional sale of finish products", on which vat is payable at maximum rate.
