Hello! Friends,

Recently Excise & Service Tax Auditors
Audited Records & Files of a company, who was a registered as dealer five years ago and their turnover is above 5 crores.
Excise Dept. was intimated writtenly before the Audit in the name of EA-2000. They've inspected on the same days what they written on Audit intimation.

They have inspected each and everthing and finally record some notes relating to Service Tax and Excise part was perfect.
After 10 days, they've called the Accounts in-charge of the company and issue a notice, which contains liability of service tax of Rs. 6.3 lakhs regarding transportation & freight. Here they charged 100% ST on transport & freight and some part was already paid by the customer (end user) of the company.

Then the company said we're ready to pay the liable tax, but the transport & freight is exclusive, which applies GTA abetment of 75% on the total amount, hence 25% was paid. Here the customer of the company, who is a manufactuerer, paid 100% service tax relating to tranport, but we've exclusive transport contract with the customer. Finally, we've paid 25% of the Notice issued by Audit Inspector. And paid challanas are also submitted. This was done 3 months back.
Till now the comapny was not received any Excise Audit Report regarding EA 2000.
And recently, when the company submitting Service Tax Return they've intimated all the particulers & payments in the return.

Now, what will the company do against this?

Hello Everybody

This is Mohammad Ghouse, I am in CA Finals. I need a clarification on service tax on GTA in the following situation:

Whether a firm incuring transportation expenses for moving its own goods ( & issuing its own Consignment note) need to bear the service tax ?

What I feel is at some point / some one has to bear the service tax in the whole process of moving of goods. In above discussed case since the firm issuing its own consigment note and incurring expenses on its own account i.e., transportation is not done for others goods. In this case is there complete escapement from service tax on GTA.

pl. clarify.

Good Luck & warm reg.
