In case of Logistics they issued invoice after charge GST

In Case of GTA, GST Amt paid by the service recipient under RCM

Exmple:-

xyz ltd receive GTA service of Rs. 10,000/-

than xyz ltd paid GST Amt Rs. 500/- on Freight Amt Rs. 10,000/- under RCM in cash and take ITC benefit

@ Gaurav Vij.,

The 12% rule applicable to GTA. Not for receipients...

If GTA can't charge GST on his Service (Like Transportion of Road it's exempted under GST. So, they can't charge) then it's will payable by Recipient as rcm and 5%...

If GTA charge 12% then it's not under RCM basis to recipient of Services...

Are you understand...?!

GTA has option to either collect 12% or tell the recipient to pay under RCM @ 5% and recipient can take credit in both circumstances. However, option once exercised by GTA is final. 5% without ITC means no ITC for GTA. For recipient ITC fully available.

Dear Sir, As per Transportation of Goods By road its not fully exempted from GST ,And only Service provided to Unregistered persons by gta is exempt under GST ( if recipient is Registered Person then the GST amount should be paid by service recipient As per the Notification 13/2017 of CGST). If GTA service provider opts for 5% he cannot claim Input tax credit. Otherwise if he opts 12% then he can claim ITC for his business.
