WE HAVE CHARGED FREIGHT ON SALE BILL AND ALSO CHARGED GST ON IT. BUT IN BOOKS OF ACCOUNT WE SHOWN THE FREIGHT AMOUNT CLUBBED WITH SALE FIGURE. IS IT CORRECT ACCOUNTING. PLESAE CLEARIFY.
WE HAVE OWN COMPANY VEHICLE. AND SOMETIMES WE SEND THRU COURIER, AND COURIER AGENCY PROVIDE US THE BILL.
You have to show separte amount of fright charges , can not clubbed with sales in the books of accounts , however you have to calculate gst on both , (sales + fright charges ) .
Take fright charges ledger account under indrect expense
fright charges is service , so it is having SAC code not HSN code . please confirm with others also

Freight charges is part of valuation of outward supply If your sales term is freight paid basis and accordingly GST will levied on whole transaction(invoice) value including freight value. HSN code will be the same applicable on product. There is no question of ITC on freight as this is include in value of outward supply.
You may club freight with sales or shown separately in bill depend upon the price negotiated with customer.
You can show in books it under sales group.
Hope this clarify you.
The customer doesn't care about the freight. They want bill based on sale rate * weight * Gst. And doesn't want to us to issue any frieght bill or even charges on the invoice. What should we do.
Is it will be exempted as ' services by way of transportation'..?
Or we took the service and needs to pay RCM 5% by making a self purchase invoice.??
In our accounting, we have written this amount under indirect expenses..
