Dear Mr gopal Asati,
Taxable service under GTA means any service provided or to to be provided to any person, by a goods transport agency, in relation to transportation of goods by road in a goods carriage. The goods transport agency is a person who provides services in relation to transport of goods by road and issues consignment note.
There is no specific exemption to the services rendered to Govt. Secondly, the consignor / consignee does not fall under any of the seven categories as per notification no.36 / 2004-ST dt 31.12.04.
Hence, if your client satisfies the paragraph one above FULLY, then he is liable to pay the ser tax.
Thanks.
