Can there be 2 consignment notes for one transportation of goods?

[Rajagopalan Ranganathan]

Sir,

In my opinion, why one GTA raises invoice on another GTA. The GTA who raises the invoice will be called as consignor and not as GTA. The reasons for raising such invoice are to be looked into before arriving at/or giving any advice.

There cannot be two or more consignment notes for the same transaction and movement of goods.

The question might be regarding a single transport between GTA and a client of the other GTA, but billed to the other GTA.

In this case the service provided by GTA to another GTA may not come under exemption of 'Services by way of giving on hire to a GTA' because one time transport may not be considered as 'hire' basis.

It appears to me sub-contractor issue is involved. The querist should elaborate his query, if he is really interested in seeking correct and concrete reply. Otherwise we can say that this is a hypothetical query.

In my view it would be a support service.
