The aforesaid service is outside the scope of service tax as the service is provided in Jammu ,a non-taxable territory.Moreover as per Rule 5 of Place of Provision of Services Rules 2012,in case of services provided in relation to any immovable property the place of provision shall be the place where the property is situated.In this case the architect consultancy is provided in relation to property situated in Jammu & Kashmir,therefore no service tax.
