Service Tax on Language Translation Services

Hello,

We are going to get a mid sized project from a large institution to do Language Translation from English to couple of Indian languages. I want to know does 'Language Translation Service' come under Service Tax net or not. If yes, under which section and client may need a circular / notification to confirm the applicable service tax.

We are a partnership company and we are above Service Tax limit in FY 2009-10.

Please help us to get clarity in this matter which is very crucial for us to WIN the order.

Thanks in advance,

Kusum
