Is SFIS (Served From India Scheme) Benefit available even on the Service Tax amount?

Normally export of services are exempt. But in case of transport of passengers by air service, Service tax is charged even on the services provided to passengers embarking out of India. i.e., all transport of passengers whether within India or outside (correct me if I'm wrong) are chargeable to Service tax.

So, in such case, can the SFIS Benefit be claimed on the total payments received in foreign exchange including the service tax?

Whehter Service Tax payment can be make through Chalan? or E-Payment is compulsory for everybody.

Assessee has two sizes of Rooms. For One type of room the Tariff is Rs.800/- for the other room the tariff is Rs.1200/-. Is he covered by this section?

Dear Experts

Whether "On-line information and database access and/or retrieval services" are exemption from Service Tax in the case of Export? if it is exempted pls let me know the ST Notification No

I filed a ST 3 online yesterday. Now when i am checking the status it is showing as filed. But nowhere it is giving any receipt or any proof of submission.


It the return process complete or something more has to be done.
