I am rendering service of Business Valuation and reporting under EBITDA to a client situated in Dubai, Do I have to pay service tax on the fees received for the job. What if the fees is received in Indian rupees??

No,you need not pay service tax. As per Place of Provision Rules where the service receiver is locate in non-yaxable territory then no service tax payable. Also as per Rule 6A Export of Services Rules,no service tax on export of service. If the fees is received in Indian Rupees that means the conditions of export related to receipt in Convertible Foreign Exchange is not met and then it is not a case of Export.Also the Service is not taxable as POP Rules.In that case No credit of inputs,inpot services is available,neither a refund of such credit is possible.
