01 February 2013 a) as per Explanation 3 to Section 65 (44) an establishment of a person in taxable territory and any of his other establishment in a non-taxable territory shall be treated as establishments of distinct person. So service tax should be applicable if other conditions for taxability are satisfied.

b) Now export of services rules are replaced by Place of provision Rules. For claiming exemption "Place of provision of service"must be outside taxable territory limits. Place of provision depends upon nature of services. So it you can prove that place of provision of your service is outside taxable territory then it would not be chargeable to service tax.
