30 November 2011 Is SFIS (Served From India Scheme) Benefit available even on the Service Tax amount?

Normally export of services are exempt. But in case of transport of passengers by air service, Service tax is charged even on the services provided to passengers embarking out of India. i.e., all transport of passengers whether within India or outside (correct me if I'm wrong) are chargeable to Service tax.

So, in such case, can the SFIS Benefit be claimed on the total payments received in foreign exchange including the service tax?

30 November 2011 Thank you sir...

But I wanted to know whether is it the gross amount charged for the service which is eligible for SFIS benefit, or is it the amount which is inclusive of service tax.

30 November 2011 Transportation of Passengers by Air Service
(This service attracts service tax even in case of transport of passengers embarking out of India; i.e., export of service)

Here for Ex.,
Gross Amount charged : 10,00,000
Service Tax @ 10.3% : 1,03,000

Total amount Charged : 11,03,000

Now, is SFIS benefit available for Rs. 10,00,000 or Rs. 11,03,000?
