Mr Vishwas, The sales tax department is correct in not allowing two firm names at a time.The firm has to omit the old name and go by the new name only,for both VAT and IT Act dealings....MJK

If profit & loss sharing ratio and constitution of both firms is similar, then it will be additional business. Under Indian Partnership Act and Income Tax Act both the firms are one and same.PAN No procured for 2nd firm is not proper. Subsequent PAN obtained is mistake of law and apply for cancellation and intimate to I T dept. Submit ack. Submit copy of application made to IT Dept with sales tax Dept. Under the facts The mistake of law may be consider for rectification and amendment by sales Tax.
