Forward Charge Basis

At what GST rate, XYZ will raise invoice twds Railway Freight Charges on ABC ?

 

It's not Railway Freight Charges, Bcoz, You are not Railway...

So, It's just Freight...

You can charge GST as per Your main product GST rate...

(Generally chargeable 18 percent...)

Sir, gst on freight is at 5% . 

 

So, if the bill is only for freight charges - it will be 5% . And if it is with a product - it becomes composite supply and rate of tax of principal supply will be leviable. 

 

Pls correct me if i am wrong. 

No, No... You are exactly correct.

But,
Small updation required in Your answer.

I just a question to You based on Your answer...

Who can charge freight (except composite supply as per You)...??
