There is prescribed procedure for issue of duplicate C Forms in the CST Rules. U have to file an FIR with the local PS issue an advertisement in an English and vernacular newspaper for the loss of original C Form Copies/cutings of all these to be furnished along with a Bond in the prescribed format to the CST assessing officer and after getting their approval submit the same to the customer to issue a duplicate C Form.
