12 October 2017 Dear Expert,
I am working with a transport company which is registered in GST as a GTA. We do not own any vehicle. We hire vehicles from local transporters who are not registered in GST for providing transport services to our client. In return to this, they raise invoice in our name and after adding some profit, we issue our invoice to our clients (all clients are registered company and also in GST).
My query is at what rate GST should be paid by us on taking the services of unregistered transporter and whether we can take credit of the same or not.

Thanking you,

Udaya Chandran

12 October 2017 Since you're registered under GTA, your services fall under RCM. Service recipient will pay GST. So you need not to charge GTA and you can't take credit input services.
