Dear Shweta,
The said notification nowhere uses the term consignor or consignee. it uses the term "where the person liable to pay freight"
refer http://www.servicetax.gov.in/notifications/notfns-2012/st30-2012.htm

OK, BUT NORMALLY SPEAKING ISN'T THE FREIGHT IS PAID BY CONSIGNEE AS HE IS THE RECEIPINT OF SERVICE.

the consignor may recover the freight from the consignee. But think of normal circumstances, when you send a courier, who pays the charges, the sender or receiver?

The person who will paid the Freight will have to discharge the liability if the services rendered by the GTA at one fourth of rate of tax.
