SIR- I am a steel trader ( GST @18%). I add the freight in rate but not separately when I sell the goods to my party directly from my supplier which means I collect the freight indirectly. My doubts are,
(1) If I pay the freight on behalf of my party, whether it is treated as inward or outward to me?
(2) Am i liable to pay the GST on freight charged?

Since freight charges are already included in the sale value, I am sure the value on which GST is charged would include freight component too. 1) Question is not clear, whom are you paying freight to? 2) GST is applicable on freight charges 3) Rate of GST is 18% (same as the product sold)
