We export goods in a container. Factory stuffed container transported by road to port. Forwarder charges us 12.36% service tax on this transport charges. He engages different transporter. Forwarder's claim is that as he is not GTA but a forwarder,75%abatement is not applicable to him However the transporter charges him 25% of 12.36%. Can this forwarder charge us 12.36% ST for transport of goods?
