Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether GST is applicable on interest received by an Indian company (XYZ) from its Mexican subsidiary (PQR) for a US dollar loan. The consensus is that GST is not applicable on the interest income, as it is exempt under Notification 12/2017 CT (r). However, since foreign currency was received, an export invoice should be raised for the transaction.

No GST applicable.
It is exempt.
It's Exempted in term of Notification 12/2017 CT (r)
But as you have received the convertable Foreign currency need to raise Export Invoice for the same.
