Sir,

Sl. No. 1 of Notification No. 13/2017- Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 as amended clearly says if the Goods Transporter opts for payment of gst @6% with eligibility to avail ITC of gst paid on inputs and input services, then payment of gst under RCM by the receiver of the service does not arise.

If the transporter is not paying gst on the service provided by him to the entities listed against Sl. No. 1 of the above Notification then the entities listed have to pay gst on GTA service received by them under RCM @ 5% since the entities cannot avail ITC of gst paid on inputs and input services availed by the transporter.

Sir, In simple language it can be said that If you are getting invoice of 12% from GTA, then you are not required to pay under RCM and if you are getting invoice then you are required to pay 5% under RCM

Dear sir,

As per notification

If GTA opts to pay 5% on output then input is not availabletosuch GTA.And the notification also says if GTA chooses 12% on output the specified suppliers are not required to pay GST under RCM as u have said but the notification is silent about if GTA chooses 5% on output then whether the specified supplier are required to pay GST under RCM or not?

if transporter charges GST on invoice either 5% or 12% then the recipient (which you have mentioned as supplier ) need not pay GST under reverse charge.

if transporter does not charge any tax on invoice then the specified recipient is liable to pay GST under reverse charge .

Further, the option of 5% or 12% is provided to the transporter. If he claims input tax credit then will have to pay tax @12% and if he doesn't then 5%.

The reply of Sh.Ranganathan Sir is very much clear. What I infer from all the replies, first liability is of GTA (Transportet), thereafter consignor or consignee.

I agree with Sri Kasturi Sir's view .

Sir,

Can I Claim ITC 12% Invoice raised by transporter.

In my view ,the restrictions imposed for availing ITC is for GTA and not for recipient. Recipient is eligible for ITC so long as GTA services are input for them.

Yes, Sir. I agree with you.

In case of recipient is paying the GST under RCM @5%, recipient should take the declaration on LR/Bill from the transporter that he is not taking the credit of GST on input/CG/input service availed by him, if transporter is registered and if transporter is unregistered there no question of taking the credit of GST by him.
