Dear Friends, One of our client is executing works contract. He runs his business in Karnataka under Karnataka TIN. He has purchased some materials from Mumbai using Karnataka tin (CST). and started his work in Mumbai itself. The goods has not entered Karnataka itself . So, please guide me where the VAT has to be paid . Is it in Karnataka or Maharastra.

Since the goods have not moved in the course of interstate these will not constitute as a interstate sales, hence VAT rate of Maharashtra will apply.
