SERVICE TAX IS BASICALLY CONSUMPTION BASED TAX, We have to find out who is ultimate consumer of the Service. In view of above service provided by your client is consumed out side India. you have to raise bill out of India and Foreign Exchange should be received by your client to avail the export exemption

The export of service rules clearly specifies that services are to be provided outside India (excluding Nepal & Bhutan) and the payment should be received in convertible foreign exchange through banking channels, In this case your client MUST raise invoice on African office.
