Service tax on Transport or any other service is charged/levied under the Finance Act, 1994.
The liability to pay service tax is on the transporter primarily. However under certain circumstances, the liability is shifted to the person paying the transport charge. This system is popularly known as Reverse Charge.
It appears from the query that the service receiver is a company and hence has to create the service tax liability.
