Reverse charge is applicable in transactions the common one being GTA. Joint charge also maybe applicable to a Co. See article on reverse/ joint charge in articles section.

If only GTA no registration reqd.

Service tax registration is required under reverse charge system vide notification no. 30/2012-ST.

Dear Mehul,

Under Reverse Charge Mechanism, the service receiver is deemed to be service provider and is person liable to pay the service tax under such scenario.  Therefore, such person is under obligation to get the registration certificate from the Jurisdictional Authorities and pay the tax on GTA service accordingly.
