Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a Goods Transport Agency (GTA) can charge GST to the recipient. GTAs have two options: charge 12% GST under the Forward Charge mechanism, claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC), or opt for the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) where the recipient pays 5% GST. The chosen option must be maintained for the entire financial year.

Yes the Goods Transport Agency ( GTA ) can charge GST from the Recipient i.e. he should have opted to pay GST under Forward Charge.

The applicable Rate of GST which should be charged by the GTA is "12%".

The GTA has TWO OPTIONS :

(a). Pay GST @ 12% under Forward Charge Mechanism ( with the benefit of ITC ).

OR

(b). GST @ 5% under Reverse Charge Mechanism ( RCM under Section 9(3) of the CGST Act 2017 ) needs to be paid by Recipient.

Valuable information I understood sir
Great...๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
As per Notification 13/2017 CT Rate :
The Recepeint is liable pay GST on Reverse Charge @ 5% GST

As per Notification 22/2017 CT (R) : GTA has given option to pay GST on FC @ 12% , (no RCM is done by Recepeint)

in Short , either GTA Services will be under RCM the liability to pay GST is of Receptient or GTA can Excercise the option 12% FC .

Note : any of one option can be opted in beginning of FY & have to continue with till end of Fy.
