CSD Purchasing Process, Eligibility FAQ – AFD Items Car, Motorcycle, TV, Refrigerator, Washing machine etc. 

AGAINST FIRM DEMAND (AFD) 

Can I purchase all models of AFD-I items (TV, refrigerator, AC etc) through CSD Depots?
No, only models listed in CSD are available through CSD. 
A new bike/car/television/refrigerator model was launched yesterday.
Can I buy it through CSD? If not, how long will it take for the item to
become available through CSD?
All items available in CSD stores go through a strict evaluation process to
ensure quality and optimum pricing. Unfortunately, this means that
newly-launched products will not be immediately available through CSD.
However, the item will be available in CSD stores after a minimum time
period of three to four months.
How often can I buy a new television/refrigerator/washing machine
etc?
All CSD consumers can purchase these items once in three years.
I am an Ex-Serviceman – am I eligible to buy a 4 wheeler through
CSD?

Are all military personnel entitled to purchase 2 wheelers? 
Certainly, CSD offers 2 wheelers to every category of the Armed Forces.
However, a 2 wheeler can only be purchased every three years. 

Do I need any special sanctions in order to purchase a 2 or 4
wheeler? 

If so, how do I obtain them? For the convenience of the CSD consumer, no
sanction has been placed on the purchase of 2 wheelers. The centralised Car
sanction by CS Dte has been discontinued w.e.f. 20 Jul 2015. 

Why does the same item have differing costs in different CSD
depots? 

Unfortunately, CSD is unable to keep costs consistent throughout the
country due to differing tax structures of different states. 

Are tax benefits available to CSD customers in all states? 

Unfortunately, tax benefits are not available in all states. Some states
have granted full exemption while others have given certain concessions. 

Which states offer full tax exemption on VAT?

The states of Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh have granted
full tax exemption to CSD while the Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh etc
have granted certain tax concessions.
