RCM on GTA 2 scenarios F&Q

hello everyone,
i have 2 questions
1)if a transporter is registered under gst and issued tax invoice at 5% , bill is shown 2b at 5% also so it means it is not GTA transaction and rcm is not applicable further we can take itc of 5% gst, am i right ?

2) if a transporter issues consignee note , so rcm is applicable so whether we have option of selecting gst rate like - 5% - for no itc and 12% to take itc? or it is like we have to pay 5% under rcm and can also take itc ?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies Goods Transport Agency (GTA) scenarios under GST. It explains that if a transporter issues a tax invoice at 5% and it's reflected as such in GSTR-2B, it's generally not a GTA transaction, and Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) doesn't apply, allowing ITC claim. However, if RCM is applicable, you can choose to pay RCM at 5% without ITC, or at 12% to claim ITC.

1. yes

2. rcm applicable at 5%.. pay under rcm and take itc.
1) is right, But
2)If you want take ITC you must pay RCM at 12%,other wise you have to pay RCM at 5 % it's you could not take ITC
