Dear Sir/Mam, As per Explanation 1(c) after Rule 43, the value of supply of services by way of transportation of goods by a vessel from the custom station of clearance in India to a place outside India is to be excluded from the aggregate value of exempt supplies.

Query-The above provision means that-

i) The Transporter (i.e. SHIPPING CO.) will NOT COLLECT GST FROM INDIAN EXPORTER on Transportation service given to INDIAN EXPORTER from Port & upto the destination . Am i right ??

ii) And Thus, the SHIPPING CO. will not collect GST & The Value of this service will not be TREATED AS EXEMPT SUPPLY IN THE HAND OF SHIPPING CO . Whether i am correct ??

2)  So, Can Shipping company claim 100% ITC on Inputs/Capital goods ??
