Reverse charge mechanism is applicable only if the Goods Transport Agency (GTA) issues consignment note. Also GTA is not applicable if the above mentioned trader is an individual
plz clarify the status of the person paying the freight and also whether transporter is registered under GTA??

Sir-The further details are:

The trader is an Individual 

The carrier issued only freight memo with out any   Reg. certificate no. -Service Tax RC Not seen in the memo

 

 

 

Then GTA is not applicable in the above case

Dear Ganeshan,

As the person paying the freight is an individual therefore reverse charge will not be applicable here.
