03 February 2017 I'm a sole proprietor and sell software online to only clients outside India and the annual turnover is 1 crore rupees. The payment partner is PayPal and they convert the foreign currency into INR and deposit into my account.

Questions.
1. Do I have to pay service tax in India?
2. I have one developer who is freelancing for me and I pay him 50% of the revenue.
Since I'm in India and he is in India does he have to pay service tax?
