CESTAT partially allowed the appeal. It held that VOSTRO-related commissions constituted export of services where payment was received in convertible foreign exchange and recipients lacked an Indian business establishment; demands for service tax on VOSTRO transactions for 01.04.2012-30.06.2012 and for the post-negative list period (through 31.03.2013) were set aside. Conversely, charges paid to SWIFT were held to be import of services falling within "banking and other financial services," and the service-tax demand in respect of SWIFT charges was sustained. Penalties relating to SWIFT were remitted under Section 80 of the Finance Act, 1994, on the ground of reasonable cause.
