For manufacturers, primarily service tax registration is required under GTA service because Vide Rule 2(1)(d)(v), seven categories of persons including registered factories have been made liable to pay service tax in relation to service provided by a goods transport agency, where the consignor or consignee belong to any of the seven specified categories and they are making the payment of the freight.
Regarding job work done by you please give details like the exact nature of work undertaken by you? whether raw material is supplied by principal?

only because of manufacturer you are not liable for ser. tax registration. AND as job work is concern, a number of work (service) are covenred under major ser. category "BAS" & "BSS". so check you transaction under the head and / or write nature of job in details.
