When we want to classify a particular transsaction as import of service, should I consider the place where the service was rendered or the place where the benefit of such service is seen?
For example, there is management consultant in US. A company from India sends its employee to the consultant. The consultant gives his suggestions in US while the company implements the suggestions and the benefits are seen in India. So should I classify this as import of services?

When a person renders services from outside the country and the same is received by a person in India import of services takes place. Charging the recipient of a service from a non-resident is a well accepted international taxation practice.Thus the matter attracts service tax . Prima facie the exemption also may not apply because of the condition that the service should have been consumed outside the country and it should not have been in the course of business or commerce.
