Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether an Equalisation Levy applies to subscription and plugin fees charged by Shopify for a website built on their platform. The query specifically addresses a client based outside India whose website is accessible globally. It questions the applicability of the 2% levy, typically for e-commerce platforms, even when the website isn't exclusively for the Indian market.

Equalisation levy will be applicable at the rate of 2% as it is an e commerce platform of outside India
If the website is accessible to the whole world and not only to India.

still equalisation levy will be at the rate of 2%?
