As per my understanding Indian branch is required to obain the registeration and would required to pay the service as reciepient of service under reverse charge method.

Dear Mr Prasad

 Thanks for  the  clarificatio.

 Please note that  eventhough service rendered  in Indian Branch  of the MNC, billing is from  UK(Service Provider) to MNC Head  office  at UK.  Billing is  not  addressed to Indian Branch  of the MNC (service receiver)

 Please clarify

Hi Rashi

 Thanks for the  clarifications.

Please note that  there is no indian  branch of the Service Provider Company. One  indian staff   provides the service. He is in the  roll of Head Office(UK)

as the service is used by indian branch of MNC, how they can define it in their accounts if the bills are paid in uk? if this is not reflected in indian accounts then no question of st, as service tax applies only when some commercial transaction takes place.
