Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether an HPCL dealer, using their own heavy vehicle to transport IOC cylinders, is liable for GST on transport charges received. The consensus is that the dealer is considered a transporter for this service and is liable to pay GST on a forward charge basis, not under Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). The dealer can offset this liability by netting the freight charges against their GST payable.

Depends on the nature of agreement between your client and the company even if there is no clause on GST.

Nature of contract will determine the nature of supply and therefore the tax

Not under RCM, but no forward charge basis, your dealer is transporter for this limited purpose since it is charging freight.

Dealer is liable to pay GST.

Dealer can net the freight  (Taxable) for GST purpose. If it cannot charge GST separately.

Freight received/(100+gst rate)*100= taxable value

Freight received/(100+gst rate)*tax rate=GST
