You can procure Machinery against Form C provided in your CST Registration Certificate such machinery's name or class of goods i.e. Plant & Machinery must be incorporated before such procurement. No need to submit any separate application in this regard. However, which filing CST/VST Return, information regarding procurement of such machinery must be provided to the Kerala VAT Department.

Form C is required to be issued on quarterly basis.

It need to be taken care that concessional rate of tax should have been levied on invoice. Documentation need to preserved in safe custody.
