Quick Summary
When packing and forwarding charges are included on an invoice, the GST rate applied is determined by the highest GST rate of any product listed on that same invoice. This is because such charges are considered part of a composite supply. Therefore, the rate of the principal supply dictates the applicable GST.

As per Section 15, CGST Act 2017, Shipping, Packing, Forwarding or any other charges which are incurred by the supplier and charged to the customer, are liable to be taxed at the Highest GST Rate charged in that Invoice.
