Place of Supply: Kerala (Since the service recipient is unregistered person the principal place of registered person is to be considered as place of supply)

Rate of Tax: A has to collect either 5% (Without input tax credit on his input goods/services) or 12% (With input tax credit).

And not tax revenue will go to Lakshadweep

I entirely agree with Sh. GUNASEKARAN K Ji . See Section 12 (10) of IGST Act for place of supply.
