Dear Sir,

We have received freight receipt in the name of our private Ltd. Company from transporter in which following is bifurcation

1. Freight Amount - Rs. 605/=
2. Labour Charges - Rs. 25/=
3. Cartage - Rs. 150/=
4. Misc. charges - Rs. 30/=
5. Other - Rs. 50/=

Whether We have liable to pay Service tax under GTA.

Whether Service Tax is applicable on Freight paid to the truck/tempo owners for carrying goods?

Ours Company is paying Service Tax under GTA services on those Freight paid on local carriage exceeding Rs.1500/-.

So in my view we r not liable to Pay ST.
please refer to any case laws on the above topic,if any.to support my contention.

please Reply as early as possible.

Thanks in Advance
