In my opinion, it will be treated as an export of service.
GST will apply if the aggregate turnover during the FY exceeds Rs. 20 Lakhs or Rs. 10 Lakhs(for special category states). (Notification No. 10/2017-IT dated 13-10-17)
IEC is not mandatory for all types of export of services.

Thanks for the advice!
However just referred to below :
" if a pre-developed or pre-designed software is supplied in any
medium/storage (commonly bought off-the-shelf) or made available
through the use of encryption keys, the same is treated as a supply of
goods classifiable under heading 8523"
In my case , standard software will be given on subscription basis through online mode i.e foreign client will buy subscription from a website. In this case will it be treated as export of services or export of goods?
