U need to answer two queries:-
1) Where are the services that U are providing are being used? i.e the place of consumption of your service. If it is outside India, It will amount to Export of Services and U need to pay service tax as it is exempt.
2) Whether all receipts are in Forex?
If Yes, it amounts to exports and hence it is exempt from service tax.
