In this case,normally CST at concessional rate has to be charged by the AP Supplier against Form-C.
In case Form-C is not furnished, then the AP supplier will be charging CST at the normal rate i.e. at the rate of applicable APVAT.
But, that will not be called as APVAT still it will be called CST but at normal rate.
Since it is a CST, the party at Maharashtra would not be able to take input tax credit of the same.
