Service tax on software engineering services currently not leviable, so registration and tax obligations do not arise for such supplies.
Whether providers of software engineers, consulting for study and architecture, or software development for another company must register and charge service tax; the forum reply states that service tax on software engineering services is not presently leviable, so such supplies (including subcontracted or on-site development) would not attract registration or tax under the reported position.
