06 April 2010 I have 2 queries on "Service Tax on Import of Services".

1. Here ST is payable by the service receiver 'but when ?' Like when the service is provided or when the payment is made to the NR service provider?

2. If any technical service is provided by a NR outside India, place of performance being Outside. Should it also be considered where such service is utilised? Say the NR works outside & sends the same thru email or courier.

Thanks & Regards
