Thus you are covered under Section 13(8)(b) of IGST Act, 2017 and place of supply is in India . Hence it cannot be treated as export of service. You are required to pay GST on the amount of processing fee and not on the whole amount. - Reply By Ramesh Sah - The Reply = Thanks alot sir 😃 for your valuable reply.. - GST Applicable .....
