Gta (goods tranport agency)


This query is : Resolved 

01 October 2017 Respected Members
We are a Custom House Agent. we provide transport services to our customer by hiring vehicle form transporters.
In the service tax regime we were registered as GTA . we need to know do we still fall in the category of GTA.
Can we issue a consignment note to the customer ? by doing so are we taking the liability of the goods on our selves.

Kindly advise on how we should we raise the invoice of Transportation charges to our customer.
Please advice ,

Trilok Singh Negi


01 October 2017 Opt out of GTA raise invoice with out consignment note GST not applicable.

02 October 2017 Dear Sir
Please be informed it is not a reimbursement . we have a mark up/Profit element when we raise the invoice to the customer. than to we do not have to charge GST . Kindly advice.
In future the authorities may ask why GST is not paid on Transportation charges though it is a substantial part of our business.
Kindly advise.

02 October 2017 With profit element also GST not applicable to non GTA transporters it is exempted.

02 October 2017 Dear Sir
Thanks for the advise. Do we need to raise a consignment note for the transaction.
Thanks & Kind regards

02 October 2017 You are only a customs house agent no need to issue consignment note. Check gst RCM applicable on hire charges.
