18 April 2016 I am working in a software development company, developing software for foreign clients.
Company have appointed a person who procure sale order by finding clients abroad for company and provide services outside India.

Can my appoint appoint him and show him as a sales agent and exempt from payment of service tax via Rule 9 of Place of Provision of servies.

18 April 2016 Service tax payable on such services(sales agent considered as intermediary) under 9(C) of place of provision of service rules.

18 April 2016 Thanks for the reply.
But major concern is that can we show him as an agent for company?
as person is just finding clients for company to improve sales of company

18 April 2016 Selling agent is a person finding clients for company to improve sales.

18 April 2016 ok. Service tax is applicable on consultancy service provided by person working in abroad for indian client.

18 April 2016 Service tax payable under RCM for consultancy services provided by non resident person to client in India.
