As per my view There is no difference between freight inward and cartage inward as both are incurred for transportation of goods.Service tax is payable on same provided the same is charged by goods transport agency. 1.If you pay 1000 as freight pay service tax on 250.This is correct. 2.If you pay cartage inward of Rs 850 pay service tax on 213. The condition of more than 750 is also applicable on cartage inward.
