19 April 2010 I think u have left the question part i.e At which rate service tax to be deducted from the transporter.


19 April 2010 Ya u r right. I m sorry,
The 75% abadment on service tax rate [10%]condition is if the transporter is not Registred with central excise & does not taken facility of cenvat credit. now in this case you pay the service tax @ 2.5% on the freight amount.

in case the transporter is taking credit facility of cenvat you will pay the service tax @ 10%

in both case you will refund the amount of service tax & adjust this amount agst cenvat duty payable.
