Quick Summary
This discussion seeks clarification on the applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate for Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) on freight when procuring products with an 18% GST rate. The user currently pays 5% RCM on freight for products with 5% and 12% GST rates and wants to know if this 5% rate continues or if it should match the 18% product GST rate, especially since transporters are non-GST holders.

I can't understand...
