Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax options available to Goods Transport Agencies (GTAs). It addresses whether a GTA can opt for both the 5% Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) without Input Tax Credit (ITC) and the 12% Forward Charge Mechanism (FCM) with ITC within the same tax period. The consensus is that a GTA must choose only one option at the beginning of the financial year and cannot switch between them during the year.

5% with no ITC and 12%with ITC , I think both under RCM just confirm .
Yes both can be claimed
But both tax rate are under RCM just confirm not FCM , same want to suggest in 1st reply .

No cannot do so for the same tax period. Either of the option to be selected at the beginning of FY

Two options cannot be selected.. you have to chose either of the one.... 12% with ITC under FCM.. 5% no itc under reverse charge only to specified recipents.
