A hardware dealer registered under GST, provides transportation services to other dealers using his own goods carrier.

Is the same covered under exemption category?

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

In my view this is transportation of goods which is exempt from GST. He is not acting as a Goods transport ageny.

The dealer should get registered as GTA also.
