for the FY 2008-09 the Taxable turnover under KVAT exceeds 40 L then only a registered dealer has to file form 240. Whereas the same has been ammended to total turn over for the FY 2009-10.

As per facts given in your query your sales comprises of export turnover only and there no other sales thus for FY 2008-09 there is no need to submit VAT 240 because vat is applicable if TAXBALE turnover is exceeding Rs.40 lacs during the year and meaning of taxable turnover exludes the sale in the course of export however FY 2009-10 it would be applicable as taxable turnover has been substituted by TOTAL turnover
