Dear sir, I am carrying out service type of engineering consultancy services. Until this March 2017, I was not liable to pay any service tax as my annual income was much less than Rs.10Lakhs. Under the new GST regime, is the service tax exempted for annual income less than Rs.10Lakhs for purely service oriented businesses? I will be very thankful for your kind advice. Regards ESB Rao

If your turnover is less than 20lacs, then u don't need to get gst registration, hence not liable to pay tax.
But you have to see that you don't do any inter-state supply of service. Even a single ruppee out of state outward service will make you liable to get registered and comply with all rules relating bto return etc also..
