05 May 2018 As per my view., Freight / Transportation Services is exempted under GST except GTA services... But, The Freight will be charged in Sale invoice then GST applicable for the Transportation / Freight charges based on the Principle Supplies...

07 May 2018 GST rate will be 12% if ITC taken and this will be in case of forward charge only. In case of reverse charge rate will be 5% only irrespective of ITC taken or not.
