Got an email for Non Payment of Service Tax/ Central Excise duty on the earned income for the FY 2014-15. I work as an IT Consultant for a USA firm. I work remotely and get paid in Dollars(which gets converted into Indian currency). I do not have any service tax number, as I was in the impression I am not eligible to pay the tax as my client is not in India. My income is more than threshold exemption limit of Rs. 10 lakhs . Kindly guide me how should I go ahead with it. Thanks,

As the services provided by you is export of services, and export of services were exempt from payment of duty in service tax regime. Explain your case.
