This organisation or admission to an event is covered by Rule 6 of the Place of Provision of Service Rules, 2012; that states that the location of service provided shall be the place where event has taken place.
In your case, the event has taken place outside India, hence the same would not be taxable under Service Tax Law; however, the same may not be considered as an export of service, if you receive the consideration not in a covertible foreign currency.
Because, the export of service is determined by the 6 conditions prescribed under Rule 6A of the SErvice Tax Rules, 1994.
Meaning , if you don't satisfy these conditions, then you may not be able to claim rebate of input credit.
Still the your output service would not be liable to be taxed by virtue of Rule 6 of the POPSR and Sec.66B of the Act, as these services are provided outside India.
