21 January 2012 In case of gta the duty to pay service tax is on the recepient of the service if he is covered under the onus to pay
service tax is applicable in case where the charge for individual consignment is more than750 rupees and 1500 in case of multiple consignments
my query is that if service tax is applicable and gta rule of recepient paying is applicable then should the gta charge service tax in his invoice raised on the service receiver????
i mean the gta isn t going to get the s tax amount as it will be paid by recepient to government
so should he mention stax in his bill or not??????

22 January 2012 Since in your case recipient of service is liable to pay service tax.....service tax amount cannot be shown or charged by Goods :transport Agency in his bill......Infact it will declare in its invoice that concerned person (either consignor or consignor) will pay service tax .....
