Clarification on Service Tax and VAT Applicability for Electronic Software Distribution in Taxable Territories: Key Considerations. A query was raised regarding the applicability of service tax and VAT on electronic software distribution (ESD) from a consulting firm. The response clarified that digital distribution involves delivering media content online, bypassing physical media. For taxability, key considerations include determining the place of provision of the service and whether it is in a taxable territory. If the service provider or receiver is located in a taxable territory, service tax may be applicable, potentially on a reverse charge basis if the provider is not in the taxable territory.
