Service tax refund without firc

I am freelancer. I do get money from outside via Payoneer. the issue is payoneer wont give any FIRC. So we have contacted the bank and they told FIRC cant give because its converted in Indian Rupees. So when we file for refund, The service tax authorities send the letter that without FIRC we cant give any refunds. I wanted to know, is that alternative method or proof that replaces FIRC and show them we do receive money from outside

FIRC will not be given even when you receive any amount from IRAN when we do exports in such cases ask the bank to give  a letter that such and such money has been received from abroad for claiming the refund 

Bank has given the letter that they received the amount from Payoneer. But the service tax officer told that , in their export rule without FIRC they cant issue the refund.

I have appeal to commisioner for this matter.

 

Bank will issue FIRC when you receive convertible foreign currency in your a/c.

In your case, Payoneer have received foreign currency. Therefore, you can not derive benefits of ST refund.
