It is good that you achieve your target Rs. 20 lakh and in service tax exempt income Rs. 10 lakh only and further that export services does not mean that those services exempt from service tax So that is requested to you explain your services then fully reply passed you because some other rules with reflected under export services.

Thanking you.

Export of service would be exempted from service tax.... You will get additional benefit of 10% sfis scrip .. Pls claim the same from dgft..
