As per Notification no.30/2012 ---100% liability of service tax is on service receiver for goods transport by road. But all transporters which are limited companies are charging service tax in their Invoice.
Is any notification for Ltd. companies to collect the service tax or they are doing wrong practice.
Please advise What should I do.Only pay Service amount & tax amount charged by them not pay & deposit directly.

There is no such notification for the transporters to charge service tax in their invoice. It is advised you just pay the freight i.e the service amount to them and deposit the service tax directly .
