Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) on transportation services. RCM is invoked when the service provider is a Goods Transport Agency (GTA) and the recipient is registered under GST. The Place of Supply (POS) determines whether CGST/SGST or IGST is applicable; for registered recipients, it's usually the recipient's location, leading to CGST/SGST. Services from unregistered transporters or non-GTA transporters are generally exempt or outside RCM.

1. CGST/SGST Applicable.
2. IGST Applicable

if GTS is register but tax paid by recipient in RCM then which tax liability ?cgst -sgst or igst

Sorry for above Reply.
First of all the RCM is applicable in this case only when the transporter is GTA . whether Registered in GST or not it's hardly relevant.

So in term of Notification 13/2017 CT , if GTA is providing transportation to services to Registered person the RCM is applicable.

Hence the Applicability of RCM in transportation services is invoke only when the service provider is GTA & Receptient is registered in GST.

As per Section 12(8) of IGST the POS in case of transportation Goods , is location of Recepeint when Receptient is registered .
In case the recipient is not registered then POS is location where the goods handed over transportation.
So as per your query , if the Recipient is registered & Service provider is GTA , the POS will be Location of Recepeint , hence CGST/SGST is applicable.


Note : In case GTA Services to URD is Exempted. (Notification 32/2017 CT rate)
Transportation services by road (Not GTA) is Exempted (Notification 12/2017 CT(R))
In case the recipient is not registered then POS is location where the goods handed over transportation.
can you explain me any example for this situation where the goods handover trasportation.

means recipient is unregister then POS is location
