29 June 2017 Hi, I own a small Software and Web Services outsourcing firm, which provides data entry, social media, Web Development & Software Services to Different Counties Online and have no clients in india, receives payments through Paypal. My annual turnover is less than 10 lac. My firm was registered in service tax previously, Should i need to migrate it to GST?

Or should I surrender my service tax number?

Thank You in Advance.

30 June 2017 YES, YOU ARE BOUND TO MIGRATE TO GST.

you are liable under GST regime as Online retrival and data....services.

even if you received any amount from outside india, you are liable to pay GST on such amount, hence go for migration to GST.

30 June 2017 Thank you sir for your reply. But may I know why I am liable to pay GST on any amount received from outside India? As Export of Service are tax free and exempt from service tax. Also, I am not serving Indian Customers and not having turnover more than 10 lac. Also, Under Online information and database access or retrieval services, Place of supply should be in taxable territory but I am providing services to outside taxable territory (India) and my services not fall under that category.

Please assist.

Awaiting your reply.
