This was occurring when the tax rate was configured in both, the stock item master and sales ledger master used in interstate sales. And the rate recorded in the sales ledger master was appearing in Annexure 2B instead of the local VAT rate.
You need to remove the tax rate details from the sales ledger master that was used for interstate sales. Ensure that all rates, including rates for earlier periods are removed from the VAT Rate Details screen.
Note: Entering the tax rate details in interstate sles ledgers is not required as the Tally.ERP 9 will infer the CST tax rate based on state name selected in party ledger and configuration of the option Is against Form C? in the Party Details screen on the transaction.
