Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicable Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) rates for loading and transport charges. If hamali (loading/unloading) charges are included in the Goods Transport Agency (GTA) service invoice, the RCM rate is 5%. However, if hamali charges are billed separately, they are considered manpower supply services and attract an RCM rate of 18%.

Is that transporter GTA...?
Hamali charges are expenses on account of loading and unloading of goods from the truck. These are part of GTA services. If invoice is raised inclusive of hamali charges, GST will be paid @ 5% under RCM. If charged separately, it will fall under manpower supply and RCM will be applicable @ 18%.
