As per section 64 below Chapter V of the Finance Act, 1994(Charging statute), the provisions of Service tax extend to the whole of India except the State of Jammu and Kashmir. As such no ST in any of the services is leviable in the State of Jammu and Kashmir.

Bank can't charge service tax on the services provided since service tax is not applicable in J&k.
