He do hire lorries from market & pay them hire charges for providing lorries, for which he gets freight paid either on 'Freight Paid' basis or on 'To Pay' basis.

A few days back, he lifted a material from such limited company for a freight of Rs. 10,000/- but such freight was on 'To pay' basis & so, was payable by the consignee. He got instructions from the consignee to charge ST in his bill @ 3.09% on freight amount & then such ST shall be payable by my father (proprietor of GTA).
