If the transportation service was filed under Nil instead of RCM by the service provider, but LR copies for all the bills have been issued along with invoices. Would the service provider then become liable?
I have explained to the GST officer that :
1. our service of transportation falls under RCM
2. I have showed him our invoices which state that tax is to be paid by the recipient on transportation, the LR copies, the declarations from customers who have accepted their responsibility under RCM and paid the tax as well.
3. we have written up our entire explanation along with a similar case study.
But the officer claims that our findings and explanations are not acceptable. And that he believes that we are trying to evade tax by wrongly filing the RCM sales.
I am unable to convince the officer to accept my response. Please suggest a way to get through to the officer?
