No, no. RCM is not to be 'deducted'. It has to be paid in addition to bill amount. Eg. If GTA issues bill for Rs.100, please pay GTA Rs.100 (ignoring TDS under Income-tax) and then additionally pay GST of 5% to Government and claim credit (if eligible). a. Rate of GST on GTA is 5% (sl.no.11(i) of 11/2017-CT(R) b. Registration status of GTA not relevant c. If GTA charged GST, please check if RCM applicable to you (see cl. (a) to (g) of sl.no.1 of 13/2017-CT(R)). If yes, tell GTA to revise invoice (if registered to show as RCM payable) and pay only basic fare to GTA. And separately pay GST to Government under RCM
