As per Rule 3 of Place of provision of services, 2012, the place of provision of the services shall be the location of the service recipient. Since the service receiver(SR) is located in India (if not in J & K ), Service Tax will be applicable. Further it will be subject to Reverse Charge and the SR will have to pay the Tax directly and would be entitled for CENVAT Credit.
