Has CHA separately issued a Consignment Note for the Transport Service?
It is tax rate of goods you sent through transport is to be charged. In case recipient pays freight and transporter is GTA then it is 5% in reverse charge
can a cha raise a consignment note kindly confirm as we do not have any vechile of our own

Yes, CHA can.
All major GTA transporters don't own all the vehicles that they operate. They hire from Individual truck owners.
If a consignment note is issued, it indicates that the lien on the goods has been
transferred (to the transporter) and the transporter becomes responsible for the goods till its safe delivery to the consignee.
Unless this transport is a very regular part of CHA activity and they understand legal risks, I would advise to avoid.
If CHA chooses GTA route they can issue invoice with SAC 996511 @ 5% GST and mark GST payable on reverse charge. So receiver will be liable to pay on RCM basis but they need not issue a separate document for it.
sac code 996791 sac code 996511 what is the difference
I stand corrected.
996791 is correct SAC for GTA service by Road transport.

Are you registered under GST for Transporter as nature of Business / HSN & SAC codes....?
If yes you can give separate consignment note / LR / Freight invoices

if the CHA pays freight and the transporter is GTA, then the rate of GST is 5% without ITC that too under reverse charge. If the freight is paid by the consignee, and the transporter is GTA, the rate of GST is again 5% without ITC facility to the recipient under reverse charge. However, if the transporter is not GTA, the rate of tax is 18% as applicable on transport services falling under HSN 9965 Sl.no.9 item no. v of notification no. 11/2017-Central Tax (Rate), unless the same is exempted by some other notification.
kindly let us know how we should raise the invoice
I hope you are clear on tax to be charged. I presume that you are registered as GTA for providing transportation services. The rate of tax is 5% without any facilty of ITC.
Coming to the invoice part, the supply of CHA service and GTA together, does not make it composite service since both are not naturally bundled together. Therefore, you have the option to raise single invoice for CHA service and GTA. The tax rate applicable would be the higher rate as applicable on any of these two supplies. Further, the best course is to raise two separate invoices viz one for supply of CHA SERVICE AND another for supply of GTA.
