Issue 1.

W.r.t GTA, the recepient of the service is supposed to pay tax, hope this is clear. 

Issue 2.

When a person provides service to a GTA, the sefices as specified in notification, then service tax shall be nil, meaning the service provider need not collect service tax from such GTA, if above mentioned services are provided to GTA.

Ex: If a packaging service provider provides service to GTA, service provider need not collect service tax. Provided, such packaging service must be used in providing goods transport service by the GTA.
