IF you have paid 18000  to Vendor and 12000 paid to transporter, ulternatevly you have paid 30000 pertaining to freight, then S tax liability will be 12.36 % of 7500 (25% of 30000)    927.00

If you have paid only 12000 as freight then  (12.36% of 3000)  371.00  

Thanks

 

 

In case of GTA, the service tax liability is on the person legally liable to pay freight. Normally, the consignor pay advance to the transporter on behalf of the consignee which is finally reimbursed. If this is the case, you have to pay service tax on 30,000/- @ 3.09%.

Thanks Sir for your valuable response...

We have paid only Rs. 18000, Balance Rs. 12000 is paid by Seller Company and we have not paid tthem Rs. 12000.

Now Pls Suggust on what amount is our liability?

 

Thanks,

 

Vendor, booked this 12000 freight paid by them, as outward freight and they are liable to pay service tax, on 12000. You have paid 18000 as freight and you are liable to pay service tax on Rs. 18000.00 ( 556.00 / 12.36% on 4500)
