If it is the export of service then registration is compulsary as per section 24. Section 24 says registration is compulsary for inter-state supply and under GST regime export of service/goods is considered as inter-state supply.

Thanks CA Shivam Arora Sir 

It means Limit of 2000000 Rs is only For Intera-State Supply 

If Client Receive the Foreign Payment in April 2018 in their Bank account but he dont take the registration of Gst yet now . Is it default of Gst . If yes 

What will be the penality of it ?

 

Is notification 10 dated 13/10/2017 will. applicable. here ? .

1)Yes 20 lakhs limit is for intra-state supply only.

2)Yes he in default, he should have taken registration within 30 days of making the supply.

Thus he is liable to penalty under section 122(xi).He shall be liable to pay a penalty of ten thousand rupees or an amount equivalent to the tax evaded, whichever is higher.

Yes you are correct notification 10 is applicable here but in one of the FAQ answered by the Government and posted on twitter also vide dated 22nd December, 2017, they have clearly stated that export service is an inter-state taxable supply and liable for registration.

There are contradicting view, and thus I would suggest to take the registration and supply without payment of tax.

yes sir , It's better to take registration .

No , As per Notification 10 exempts to obtain Registration if your aggregate turnover do not exceed 20 lac , & export is counted as Interstate as IGST Tax is applicable so no need to take Registration if your turnover is below 20lac

Acts are not govern/run by FAQ

I agree with you  but 

 

Now question raised 

Web development Service is under the E commerce Service 

This is the following  notification 10

 

 

New Delhi, the 13th October, 2017

The Notification 65 you have mentioned says that the E-0perator is not exempted but all those who supplying on behalf of E-COMMERCE is exempt to obtain Registration if his aggregate turnover not exceed 20lac .... AND moreover your services are not covered under 9(5) , so no need to take Registration
