3000 material cost
5000 transportation
total vat on 8000 5%= 40 means total bill 8040

VAT and service tax are mutually exclusive.
Where VAT is payable you cannot escape that by paying service tax and vice versa.
If you engage a GTA for transportation of your goods and you are liable [ you are a company/ factory etc as specified] to pay him under reverse charge mechansim you would have to pay ST on 25% of the transportation. If buyer is reposnsible then he would be liable to pay
ST ius payble by the GTA service
