Service tax on inspection service provided to foreign client
This query is : Resolved
13 June 2016
Dear Sir,
I have USA based company as client. My client has placed Purchase Order to Indian company (Vendor) who is manufacturing goods in India. Manufacturer (vendor) will export these goods to USA. I will have service contract with USA based company. I will provide inspection related services on the goods being manufactured at their vendor’s premises. My reporting about inspection finding will be directly to USA based company. I will not have any contractual/commercial relationship with vendor. I will have Purchase Order from my client and will receive payment for my services in USD.
My query is on place of provision of service rule 2012. As per rule 4 – Service tax is payable if, place of provision of service, is in India. I need interpretation of place of provision of service. In my case am I providing service within India or outside India? Or rule 4 is not at all applicable for me ?
Do I need to pay service tax or my service can qualify for export of Services ?
Regards

Dear Seetharaman Sir
Thanks for your reply. I am new to service tax and have read something about it on interent. I want to understand the interpretation of term ' place of Provision of service'. Does it mean 'The actual place where service is provided' or ' The place where service is consumed' ?
Thanks and Regards
