Query :

An Assessee under Kerala General Sales Tax Act paid a lumpsum amount of Rs 1 crore towards KGST and interest dues for 5 assessment years viz., 2000-01, 2001-02, 2002-03, 2003-04 and 2004-05.  The aggregate dues for the above years are in excess of 4 crores. However the assessing officer has appropriated the entire sum of Rs 1 crore towards the interest dues for the five years and has not appropriated anything towards the principal tax dues.  Is it correct ? Should he not appropriate it year wise - first towards the interest dues of 2000-01 and then principal tax dues of 2000-01 before going to the year 2001-02 ?

CST PAID ON PURCHASE CAN NOT BE SET OFF FROM VAT PAYABLE BUT VAT PAID ON PURCHASE CAN BE SET OFF FROM CST PAYABLE

CST PAID ON PURCHASE CAN NOT BE SET OFF FROM VAT PAYABLE BUT VAT PAID ON PURCHASE CAN BE SET OFF FROM CST PAYABLE

set off of Vat paid (ITC) (purchases) against vat payables (Sales) No setoff against CST payables, Only you can adjust the excess credit of vat input against CST Payables.

Hello Sir,

As example : Rajasthan dealer is purchase goods from Pujab dealer the cost of Rs. 1 Lac with pay CST @ 2%against 'C' form. It means 1,00,000+2000=1,02,000.

The said Rajasthan dealer sold the some part of said material in Rajasthan with receive VAT Rs.300 & other some part of said material sold in M.P state with receive the CST Rs.500.

So please tell me for rajasthan dealer how can set off for CST /VAT ?
