MS,
If GTA is registered, please first check if goods being transported fall in Specifcally exempted list or not, vide Notification no.12/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated
28.06.2017 (sr.no.21). If yes- then no GST applicable on service provider or receiver.
If goods donot fall in that list then GTA can :
a) give Consignment note mentioning SAC 996791 and that RCM liability is on receiver or
b) Issue invoice with SAC 996791 with @ 5%, but mark Reverse Charge as yes.
We receive GTA service from VRL and they have voluntary GST Regn. in all states.
They issue Consignment Note on "To-pay basis" or Money receipt but they don't charge GST.
C Note/Money Receipt mentions Consignor & Consignee (my name) & GSTIN, SAC code and also specifies who pays/paid for the shipment, and on whom the GST liability is there.
If sender pays for shipment, they become recipient of service and need to do RCM.
If receiver pays for shipment, they become recipient of service and need to do RCM.
I trust I have set all doubts to rest.
