26 May 2017 I agree with seetharaman ji in case of CHA rate is 18 % but in case of ocean freight rate is 6%

26 May 2017 In case of ocean freight it is only 5% Somil ji said earlier.

26 May 2017 any notification or circular or any other material can you all provide for the list of services.

Secondly what is the percentage for Ocean Freight is it 5% or 6%

What about the Reimbursement of Expenses on actual basis. So far no service tax levied on that

29 May 2017 See the link for GST rate on services.

Ocean freight GST rate is 5% only.
No GST will be levied Customs duty reimbursements.
