26 September 2007 A supplier received central sales tax declaration form "C" from his customer after nearly six years. The reason for delay in issuing the form was due to suspension of factory activities on account of labour problems. During this period the supplier had completed his sales tax assessment by paying the difference tax for non-recipt of "C" form. Now that the form has been received, is there any way for refund or for adjustment of the difference tax paid? Is there any time limit? If so what is the maximum time allowed? I request our valued experts and esteemed club members to advise. - Vishvesh
