Technically YES, but u can avail benefit of exemption under 42/12 notification. However w.e.f. FA 2014 (last year) this transaction is outrightly exempt (unconditionally)

in addition of above. contract between your over seas agent and between your company must be their for availing the exemption under notification 42/12.
