Applicability of service tax on export buying house


This query is : Resolved 

28 September 2015 Dear All,

I have one query relating to applicability of Service Tax on the services provided by an Export Buying House as under:

We are planning to form an Export Buying House in India which will provide services to foreign clients in the matter of arrangement of Sample products, quality check and speedy export of the product and in lieu of these services, proposed Export Buying House will raise bill on the foreign client in foreign currency. Since the Foreign Buyer is not having any branch or office in India, the bill will be sent by email to the foreign party and payment for the bill will be made by the foreign buyer within certain period.

My query is that since the location of the service provider is within India, services are provided within Indian territory but the foreign buyer is located outside India without having any branch or office in India, IN THIS CASE, IS SERVICE TAX APPLICABLE ON THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE EXPORT BUYING HOUSE AND IS IT LIABLE TO PAY SERVICE TAX ON ITS RECEIPTS FROM THE FOREIGN CLIENT.

Thanks and regards

Raj
