GST on Transport service availed from non GTA, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Mayuri Shete]

X Enterprise supply us material for which he is giving us VAT invoice.& for transport of the same he prepares other invoice as X Transport. but for transport of goods he is not issuing goods consignment note & simple invoice is there mentioning Truck no. & goods details. So we confirmed from him that he sends us material from his own Truck & he is the owner of the firm. So we didn't pay service tax on transport invoice that he has sent us.

Is it correct?

now under GST, instead of VAT GST is there in his invoice & same thing with transport invoice. So now GST to be paid on transport charges?

please advise

They are not the Goods transport agency as they are not issued Consignment note hence GST is not applicable

Madam,

The service provided will be treated as GTA only when the service provider issues consignment note. If the service provided is GTA service then gst is payable by consignor/consignee under reverse charge. Otherwise the service provider himself has to discharge liability of gst subject to prescribed threshold limit of ₹ 20 lakhs.

ok. so now we don't have to pay GST for transport service recd from non GTA.

thank you.

Sir,

The answer is yes.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Using own truck for transportation of goods by road is out of definition of GTA.

[Mayuri Shete]

But in that case, do we have to pay GST as service taken by URD then?

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

The definition states that any person providing transportation of goods by road. Any person includes an individual.

[KASTURI SETHI]

When using own truck is not taxable, the question of paying tax on the basis of URD does not arise.

[Mayuri Shete]

thank you very much for the valuable information.

Along with the agreement of views of extremed. Exports .

My submission is

As the person is charging for transportation of goods along with supply of goods. Does this mean it can be brought under composite supply. If so the same may be taxable and valuation rule also endrose it.
