Yes your client can issue invoice at NIL rate.

As per the Amendment in Sec 8 of Central Sales Tax Actw.e.f. 10-9-04, the Form 'I' under sub-section 4 of Section 8 was to be obtained from specified authority of the Central Government i.e. Commissioner of Special Economic Zone (SEZ). It was further stated that only Form 'I' issued by Commissioner, SEZ will be valid and form issued by Sales Tax Department will be valid only upto 9-9-04.

(refer Trade Circular No. 19T of 2009 attached herewith)
