After much bickering with states, the finance ministry today reduced the central sales tax (CST) rate on inter-state sales from 3 per cent to 2 per cent with effect from June 1.The ministry notified the rate-cut to the states despite differences on compensating them for losses of about Rs 13,000 crore in 2008-09 because of the cut. CST was cut from 4 per cent to 3 per cent on April 1, 2007. It was to be reduced to 2 per cent on April 1, 2008, and phased out by March 2010.
A large number of representations have been received from dealers who are not covered by the Notification for filing of e_Return. These dealers made a request and shown their willingness for filing e_Return even though it is not mandatory for them to file e-Return. It is the endeavor of the department to encourage the filing of e_return. Therefore, the request of these dealers is accepted and they were allowed to file e_Return.
Following an agreement between the Central Government and the State Governments, the rate of Central Sales Tax was reduced from 4 per cent to 3 per cent in this financial year. It is now proposed to reduce the rate to 2 per cent from April 1, 2008. Consultations are underway on the compensation for losses, if any, and once agreement is reached the new rate will be notified. I am also happy to report that there is considerable progress in preparing a roadmap for introducing the Goods and Services Tax with effect from April 1, 2010.

Trade Cir. No. 5 T of 2008 A Trade Circular No. 1T of 2008 dt. 25.1.2008 had been issued explaining the procedure for issuance of statutory forms under the Central Sales Tax Act, 1956. In that circular, a procedure had been set down for the use of applicants of declaration forms under the Central Sales Tax Act. As per that circular, the dealers were required to show proof of filing of returns and payments from 1.4.2005 onwards till the last return/payment due from them on the date of application. The dealers were also required to furnish information in the format provided for in the said circular.
Imagic Creative (P.) Ltd. v. Commissioner of Commercial Taxes Payments of service tax as also the VAT are mutually exclusive. Therefore, they should be held to be applicable having regard to the respective parameters of service tax and the sales tax as envisaged in a composite contract as contradistinguished from an indivisible contract. It may consist of different elements providing for attracting different nature of levy. It was, therefore, difficult to hold that in a case of instant nature, sales tax would be payable on the value of the entire contract, irrespective of the element of service provided. The approach of the assessing authority, thus, appeared to be correct.
