No, as per this order Hon'ble Delhi High Court helt this with retrospective effect hence not liable to pay service tax.

 

In view of the said Judgment no service tax would be payable on the rent received by owner of immovable property.

The judgement as I understand is still not available for examination. Prima facie it appears that the levy has been struck donw. Sometimes there is agap between the newspaper reports and reality.
