...Hi Experts, I recently entered (July 2017) into subcontracting with an indian firm but the services were exclusively delivered outside India. I did not have a GST number when i entered into contract with the subcontractor who is based in India . The subcontractor paid me in INR for the services delivered by me onsite (Saudi Arabia) . He also deducted a service tax of 12% on the total amount which was credited to my Indian account. I did not invoice him / claim GST from him since it was processed like a salary mode .Now he wants me to pay GST of 18.5 % . I was contracted as an individual not as an establishment . Would i require to pay GST or can this be considered as export of supply?
