25 February 2010 Thank you Mr Vijay
Now my another doubt is that-
If we buy raw material within the state(VAT), manufacture the finished goods and sale the same out side the state(CST), then can we claim the VAT (which we had paid during the purchase of raw material)?

If yes, then can we set off the CST (which we had received while selling of finished goods) against the above VAT?

Thanks & Regards
