Why can't we put local transactions in interstate rate?.
Local transactions cannot be put in Intrastate tax rate because local transactions are within the state and are subject to different tax rates, such as CGST and SGST. And Intrastate is subject to IGST.
Step 1: Interstate supply is where the goods or services provider is in a different state or Union Territory, and the place of supply is in a different state or Union Territory.

Intrastate supplies are liable to CGST (Central Goods and Services Tax) and SGST/UTGST (State Goods and Services Tax/Union Territory Goods and Services Tax). They are levied by the Central and State/UT governments, respectively.
