01 March 2017 Dear Experts,
I am working in a logistics company and facing some issues on service tax applicability of service tax on transportation services(GTA) There are 2 issue as under:-

Case A

We rent some truck for domestic transportation .
In this case , we arrange our driver , fuel , toll tax and etc .

We did not receive any transportation service from supplier . We get rental truck service from supplier .

In this case , Do we need to charge service tax on our Invoice or our client need to pay service tax under RCM .

Case B

More than 95% FWD job , we use supplier transportation service .

Supplier will provide their cost and we add the profit , then we can charge our selling price .
Now , our client pay the transportation service tax on our Invoice .

In this case , do we need to pay the service tax on transportation service availed from GTA ?

If we will pay , Govt will get double service tax from our client and my company.

Thanks
Pramod
