If you send a single consignment to any party and if the freight is above Rs.750, then Service Tax will be applicable.

If you are sending two or more than two consignment through a single vehicle, then the collective freight will be considered and not individually. If the freight of the vehicle crosses the mark of Rs.1500, Service Tax will be applicable i.e. even if the freight of one consignment is Rs.350 and the other consignment's freight is 1200 which are being transported through a single vehicle, Service Tax will be applicable on the collective freight.

Hope you got it.
