An electronic platform that connects transporters with customers, without itself undertaking transportation, issuing consignment notes, or performing ancillary transport functions, is an electronic commerce operator and not a goods transport agency. It also does not qualify as an agent or pure agent where it merely facilitates bookings and lacks the contractual conditions required under Rule 33. The exemption for transportation of goods by road was therefore unavailable.
