Raghunathan: I want to know whether the "C form" will contiue to be insisted upon as proof of interstate goods movement. How will it ork in case of Services rendered- eg. a servie engineer goes from chennai for repair of goods in Mumbai. Is it IGST covered or GST covered?

Dhaval Chhadva: Hello, Are states allowed to charge more than the rate specified under IGST. For e.g. Goods were sent from Maharashtra to Karnataka. In such a scenario IGST will be charged. However can Karnataka apply additional GST CESS for such goods consumed. Additional Queries: will Producer in Maharashtra collect the tax and pay it in IGST account of Karnataka. Regards, Dhaval C.
