Section 8 of the CGST Bill refers to composite supply. In case of composite supply, the supply is to be treated as the nature of principal supply. In particular case discussed by you, freight appears to be primary service. Packing, insurance appears to be incidental and subsidiary to freight. Hence the supply shall be taxed as freight.
