05 November 2012 Not liable to service Tax

06 November 2012 As my client is issuing note for only Transportation & not for sand.
So doesn't he liable to Service Tax?
Doesn't he considered as a GTA?
Because according to me as he is issuing only bill for Transportation, he is liable to tax.
Kindly reply.

19 November 2012 There is formula which you should remember that if VAT is charged no Service tax and reverse is the position provided the contract is not a composite contract.

So the expert is correct I agree with him
