Dear Sir. Noti.No.8/2005-ST exempts from payment of service tax, subject to following two conditions (i) the process undertaken by the job-worker does not amount to manufacture(ii) raw material supplier pays duty of excise on the Finished goods. In case raw material supplier is exporting the goods under bobd i.e without payment of duty, you are not entitled to avail the exemption benefit under Noti.No.8/2005. Regards. DILIP DARJI.
