Suppose X limited a company registered in West Bengal Under CST Act. X (Pvt) limited had also branch offices in State Rajasthan and UP. They had taken CST registration in the respective two states also. Now, suppose, the name of X limited is changed in the State of Rajstan only and a new company is formed say Xy (Private) Limited. Sales Tax Authority of Rajasthan accepted the name but the tin remained the same. Can the TIN remain same?
As per my understanding it could be possible when different State issues separate RC No for CST.

As far as I belive, the CST No. is generated automatically by the system and is unique and will be used by all units of the firm all over India except Jammu & Kashmir.
We have to explore the possibilities in the said case.
It is also observe from the question that the said company have business within other two states by different name i.e. X(Pvt)Ltd. which is initially dirrent from X Ltd., over and above it starts one more business in the name styled as XY (Private) Ltd.
