Do not agree with any of the above answers.
Section 24(iii) requires any person liable to pay under RCM to be compulsorily registered under GST (irrespective of turnover).
Therefore, if the buyer has paid the freight then he is considered as the recipient of services. Refer Explanation (a) to notification 13/2017-CT(R).
Therefore, buyer requires to register under GST and discharge taxes under RCM.
As he is registered now, all other provisions would be applicable, i.e. outward supply taxes, inward supply credit, penalty, notices etc.

@ CA Akshay
GTA services to URD is also eligible for exemptions subject to certain conditions (Entry 21A)
At any rate seller will not be liable to pay GST on RCM in this case.
