Service tax requires that the GTA must mention on the consignment note amount of service tax and whether he has paid service tax. But what should one do to take the credit of service tax of inward goods, if the GTA does not mention so on the consignment note.

Dear Priti, In most of the cases of GTA service, reverse charge is applicable and service tax thereon is payable be the recipient. So when RCM is applicable, the GTA service provider cannot mention or charge service tax amount in consignment note or invoice because the tax is to be paid to the credit of CG directly by the SR vide GR-7 Challan and in case of inward transportation, this GR-7 is the eligible document to take cenvat credit.
