The place of provision of service depends on the nature of service as specifed in Place of Provision of Service Rules, 2012. In most cases, being a destination based tax, the location of the service receipient is the place of provision.
If as per rules, the place of provision of service is in non taxable territory, then no service tax is leviable on the same.
