17 March 2017 Hi,

My partnership firm is registered with service tax. I have two queries:

1. Now we are giving engineering drawing (soft copy through internet) services to my steady US client. My client is paying us through wire transfer (using SWIFT) to my Indian current account. What is the procedure to file service tax exemption for these amount?

2. We are not expecting to cross annual turnover INR 10 lakh. In this case should I need to pay service tax?

17 March 2017 No need to pay service tax, as it will fall under export of service. File nil service tax return.

17 March 2017 Thank you sir for your reply, could you please tell me that whether we need to pay service tax in case our annual turnover is not exceeding Rs.10 lakhs, but we are registered under service tax?
