The applicant has entered into an agreement with various parties and will be providing transportation services with own vehicles but without having LR/GR and therefore is claiming that the service provided by the applicant will be non GST Supply. B. We find that the transport services to various manufacturers of motor vehicles for carrying their vehicles from the factory to the various cities in India where the authorised dealers are located is a Goods Transport Agency (GTA) Service under GST Act, 2017.
