Transport Vehicle Rental Services Without Consignment Notes Not Exempt Under Entry 18 Notification 12/2017-CT(Rate)
Case-Laws
GST
AAR ruled that transportation services provided by subcontractor X to principal GTA are not exempt under Entry 18 of Notification 12/2017-CT(Rate). Since X does not issue consignment notes, a key requirement to qualify as GTA, their services constitute vehicle rental rather than goods transportation. The principal GTA maintains the direct transportation contract with consignors/consignees and issues consignment notes, while X merely provides vehicles. The services fall under Notification 11/2017-CT(Rate) as transport vehicle rental services and are therefore taxable. The exemption sought was denied as X's activities fall outside the scope of transportation services by a GTA.
