27 July 2012 Firm need not get registered. Let A ltd do it on reverse charge basis. (If B firm's service contract is HUGE, it is advisable to get registered under service tax. This will have other LATENT benefits.)

27 July 2012 Service Tax Liability is on the specified person who is paying to the GTA. So, in my opinion B is liable.
