If I, as an agent, am involved in receiving and supplying taxable goods on the behalf of my principal, who will be considered as the person liable to pay tax on such goods, me or the principal?

In your case, both you (agent) and the principal shall be jointly and severally liable to pay tax on such transfers.
It can be decided with a mutual discussion with your principal. You can pay the tax or ask him to do the same. Just make sure the tax is paid alright.
But, BOTH the AGENT and the PRINCIPAL shall be jointly and severally liable to pay tax on the goods and services supplied and received by the AGENT.
