30 September 2015 01. It is for the US national to decide if he can render service while on tourist VISA. Company need not bother about the same so long as service rendered is as per the expectation of the company.

02 Income Tax TDS is very much applicable depending upon the residential status of the US national.

03. The service tax is applicable. The company needs to pay the same

30 September 2015 Thanks a lot.
