Based on the limited information you have provided no service tax is payable you can even get credit/refund for your input service tax and get a refund or utilize it elsewhere.
We are general consultant to a company abroad and under an agreement signed we are paid monthly consultancy fee in US Dollar. Wheather we should charge service tax. As I understand no service tax is applicable on export of service if the amount is received in convertible foreign exchange.Can anybody clarify.
