This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications for a factory in Bangalore using an unregistered GTA to transport goods to Tamil Nadu. The primary tax applicable is Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) at 5% on the transport service, as the provider is unregistered. Additionally, due to the place of supply being Bangalore, intrastate GST (CGST+SGST) will also apply. The options are 5% without Input Tax Credit (ITC) or 12% with ITC.

GST shall be charged on RCM (Reverse Charge Mechanism) basis @ 5% on the transport services being availed by a registered person, where any transport service from an Unregistered person is availed.
