Yes, service tax is payable on GTA. Goods transport agency" means any person who provides service in relation to transport of goods by road and issues consignment note, by whatever name called.
Service tax should not be paid to GTA, but payable to Govt by consignee or consignor, as the case may be. (i.e either buyer or seller)
