ST on GTA services


This query is : Resolved 

28 February 2008 Sir,
we r having some transport contracts. In such contracts, contractor was asked to dump meterial form one place to another place at an avg.distance of 5KM.For this, monthly payments will be made to contractor based on daily trip sheets.Further no conignment notes will be issued bythe contractor. In this case, consignor and consignee will be the same person.

Are these type of contracts also covered under GTA Services and liable to Service Tax?

Kindly Clarify.

28 February 2008 Yes
If the daily trip exceeds 1500/- per trip then service tax will be applicable but if the trip is below 1500/- then exempt

Consignment note by whatever name called, will be treated as consignment note. In t his case the trip sheet will be considered as consignment note but it should include, vehicle number, weight, place of delivery from to and so on

15 March 2008 NO,

If transporter are not complince of Rule 4A, He is no fall under the GTA service.

If transporter raised invoice on trip bases, He is not fall under the GTA category.

Please refer Rule 4A
