Sir, I deal in outbound tours n I make most of the payment directly to the country where services are to be provided through remittance. Do I or Am I liable to pay the Indian Service Tax of 9% whereas I dont provide services in India?

DEAR SIR,

IF YOU ARE PROVIDING SERVICE OF ENTIRE TOUR THAN YOU NEED TO CHARGE SERVICE TAX FROM YOUR CLIENTS AND NEED TO PAY SUBJECT TO YOUR TOTAL LIMIT OF RS. 9,00,000/-

HOWEVER IF YOU ARE NOT PROVIDING TOUR OPERATOR SERVICE BUT SEPARATE SERVICES OF FLIGHT BOOKING, TRAVELLING ETC. THAN BASED ON NATURE OF SERVICE SEPARATELY IT WILL DEPENDS WHETHER SERVICE TAX SHOULD BE CHARGED OR NOT

Dear Sir,

Yes you are liable to pay service tax, if your taxable service value exceeds 10 lacs and you are liable for Registration if the value exceed 9lacs.

Please feel free to call/revert in case of any doubts

Thanks and Regards
