A C&F Agent cannot be said to be providing GTA service. He is simply claiming reimbursement of Freight Charges. Reverse Charge is not applicable.

Thanks for your reply
Sir one more thing, the C&F agent is attching the bill of the transporter under his claim wherein the same amount is being claimed as a reimbursement. However the transporter is also not charging service tax in his bill. In this scenario who will be liable to discharge service tax?
My earlier reply is for the transaction between the C&F Agent and his client.
The transaction between GTA and C&F Agent is a different transaction. Kindly read my article on GTA for more details.
