Case 1.A uses its own vehicle. Charges Rs. 500 extra as freight. Raises invoice for Rs. 5500, showing Rs. 500 seperately as freight charges.

Case 2. same as case 1 except that freight is not shown seperately.

Case 3. A hire a transporter for delivering the goods at our site. A charge Rs. 500 from us by showing it seperately in the invoice and then pay these Rs. 500 to the transporter.

Case 4. A hire a transporter, raise bill on us for Rs. 5000 only and we make payment of Rs. 500 directly to the transporter.

21 August 2008 In case 1 who is GTA. Whether the Supplier and GTA can be the same person. The definition of GTA syas that a GAT is any person ------ who issue Consignment Note. Now if the supplier uses his own vehicle then he need not to issue any Consignment Note. In such situation can the supplier itself can be treated as GTA.
