18 February 2025 in scenario 1- there will not be any RCM liability as he has not availed any services from a GTA.
in scenario 2- There will be RCM liability. But since you have mentioned that product is exempted, please check that if product is covered under exemption Notification No. 12/2017- Central Tax (Rate) 28.06.2017 which prescribes transportation of certain goods as exempted.
