I am buying a digital camera in ebay.in, and the seller asks me for providing form 50 to ship to west bengal . Item location is, CHENNAI, TAMIL NADU.
I alos sell items in ebay.in, and I've sold many items(electronic kits) to WB(most), AP(second most), AS, TN, KL, UP, GOA etc places, but never I needed any such any form. DTDC just takes four copies of declaration letter from me.
I have searched on Internet and got a copy of form 50. Took a print-out of it, and while filling it, I found, it requires Trade name, VAT RC no, CST RC no, PAN no. Being an individual I have only PAN no. So, What to do?
Is it fair to register a VAT(TIN) and CST number through long and costly process for just buying a digicam in eBay which costs just a few hundreds less than our local store?
Isn't there any way that I can force the seller to ship the item as personal item, not a trade item.
And if I had to register CST etc no , I think it would be cheaper if I journey to chennai, and take the item directly.
