The goods transported are basically agricultural goods and fruits i.e Onions, potatoes, mangoes, etc

The truck and Trailers for transport are owned by the directors in their individual name.

ABC Pvt Ltd is Paying a fixed amount on monthly basis to the directors for using theirs Trucks & trailers in the form of Hiring Charges.

and the ABC pvt ltd charges to thier clients in the form of
Transportation RS.XXX
Agency Charges Rs.XXX

kindly Advice whether the service tax should be charged only on Agency charges @14%
or it should also be charged for transporattion charges in the Form of GTA Services

29 June 2015 Since, goods being transported are agricultural produce, fruits etc., the service of GTA shall be exempt from service tax.
Service tax to be charges only on the agency charges based on the facts provided by you.
