Going by the definition of GTAs, it is understood

that a GTA should issue a consignment note by

whatever name called or in whatever form of doc.s

while transporting goods BY ROAD from the CONSIGNOR

to CONSIGNEE. It is clear that the road

transportation service availed by a mining company

for transporting coal/sand/other input materials/

capital goods within the mining area from one of it's

collieries/units to other unit under the ownership

of the same coal company, operating in a vast mining

area do not constitute Service availed from GTAs.

The Consignee and Consignor are same person. there is

no Road Transport in truest sense of the word, no

Consignment notes are issued by the Transporter.

They transport the goods simply on the basis of

Challans issued by one unit/colliery in favour of

the other unit. They are not Consignment notes but a

goods transfer note for securing the transport and

acknowledgement procedure of such goods

transportation activity. Please explain the position

of these coal/sand/other item transporters vis a vis

a GTA. regards.

Hi,

We have imported machines from China under EPCG Scheme as per our PO and payment also 100% made.

The Installation of machine done by their agent who is located in India. We have not made any payment towards installation of machine to their agent. now excise auditor requested us to make service tax payment on installation of machine.

is that liable to pay Service Tax on installation of machine by us? whether can it be avoided ? Kindly clarify.

our company liable to pay ST in accommodation services. but in notification 31/2012 - if declared tariff is less than 1000/- than company will be exempted in service tax. how to now declared tariff?
please provide me information. or its companies decision to decide tariff value.

Hi,,,
I am a trading concern and we purchase goods from outside state. The goods comes with consignment note and the transport agents comes under (GTA) and they dont charge any service tax on that. So, are we lible to pay service tax the department asks so??

The second thing is that we transport our goods to the customers and the cost of transportation is borne by us and the transporter is the owner of the vehicle. He doest issue any consignment note and no service tax is being charged. So is there any liability of service tax in future.

What if we convert our self into a manufacturing concern with the same situations above.
