C-Form is a certificate issued as proof of CST Purchase. This form can be obtained from sales tax dept. The seller has to obtained this form – C from the purchaser and show it to the sales tax dept to get tax exemption. In case if the purchaser does not release the Form – C the seller has to pay the Tax at the time of sales tax assessments.
Form C is issued by the dealer for purchasing goods from the dealer out side the state in which he resides the effect can be understood my looking at following example If Mr A Registered Dealer in Hyderabad (AP) wants to purchase goods from Mr B a registered dealer in Mumbai.Mr B who is selling the goods will charge VAT @ 4% or 12.5% on the goods if Mr A issues him “C” Form then Mr B should Charge him CST @ 2% so Mr A is Saving Tax.
