Dear Friends,

Please clarify

If it so, the recipient of the serivce need not pay service tax on carriage inward as well as outward ?

Please clairfy

Service tax on transportion of goods through goods carriage by road (commonly known as GTA service) is taxable to tax as earlier. The liability to pay service tax is on service reciepient (as was earlier)

Notification 29/2008 provides exemption on any person who provides service of supply of tangible asset being goods carriage( like truck, lorries etc.) to Goods Transport Agent for use in GTA service.

Regards,
