Under the negative list regime the export and import of services have been replaced by the Place of Provision Rules. As per Rule 9 of the Rules the place of provision of the service of online information and database access or retrieval services is determined on the basis of the location of service provider. In the given case since the location of the service provider is India, the taxable territory, hence the service would be taxable in India and you would be liable to pay service tax. You could however avail the service tax exemption available to small service provider of Rs. 10 lakhs as per Not. 33/2012.
