07 October 2015 Dear Sir,

A Indian Private Limited Company is getting agency commission for the sale of goods of that company in India. The foreign company does not have any branch in India.

My question is
1. Is this commission received by Indian Company covered under service tax?

If yes,
2. Under which head, this service will come?

3. What service tax rate need to be charged by the company?

4. Are there any abatement, relaxation or exemption regarding this service.

Thanks in advance!
