Service tax applicability on foreign income


This query is : Resolved 

31 July 2011 Dear Friends,

We have received income in foreign currency in our foreign currency account. we have converted a portion of the same into indian currency & service tax is paid on that. Whether we are required to pay service tax on the balance amount in foreign currency account or any exemption is available on the same.If yes please give me he notification no also. Please its very urgent.


31 July 2011 Dear Sowmya,

There are specific exemptions on Export of Service. To claim the exemption under Export of Service, receipt of consideration in convertible foreign exchange is a basic criteria. If the other conditions based on the specific service provided by you is satisfied than the whole proceeds can be exempt from service tax. To ensure the exemption detailed analysis of facts should be examined.

31 July 2011 Dear Sowmya

If income which you have received in foreign currency in your bank account, it is towards services which you had provided in India.Then we have to pay service tax on amount which you had collected.

31 July 2011 agreed with vipul. Only the export of services can get exemption.
