TILL 5 LACS TURN OVER, YOU DO NOT NEED ANY VAT/CST FOR SURE. IF YOUR TRANSACTION ABOVE 5 LACS PER YEAR, THEN ONLY YOU NEED VAT/CST REGISTRATION. 

NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THAT FOR SURE. IF YOU ARE IN MH, YOU HAVE 10 LACS LIMIT.

There is definitely an exemption in VAT ( for selling within state) but if you are selling out of state there is no exemption. So you need to have TIN ( VAT/ CST No.) to sell legally.

Till then you can choose delivery option as "delivery within seller's city" while listing products on ebay.
