Tranporter is liable to pay service tax only in exceptional cases. Otherwise, payer opf freight is liable to tax. Tax is 10.3% on the 25% of freight amont.

Agree with above. Only where the payer of freight is not covered by Rule 2(1)(d)(v) of Service Tax Rules, 1994, viz., individual Excise manufacturer/unorganised sectors, etc. 75% abatement is applicable, hence tax is to be paid through PLA (without utilising Cenvat credit) on 25% of freight amount paid.
