as per service tax provision if u are making payment to gta and u are the specified person as per STR 2(1)(d)then you are the person liable to pay service tax for the service received from GTA by road.
procedure is you just have to act as if you are the one who is placing himself in the GTA's position and have to pay tax as per service tax provision i.e.when bill is raised or when payment is made whichever is earlier. and the rate shall be 3.09% of the value of the freight u r paying
if still have any doubt can reach to me.
