Services rendered to foreign affiliates were examined to determine whether they constituted export of services and whether GST could be levied on "data management services." Applying para 3.2 of Circular No. 209/1/2018-ST, the place of provision for software-related services including testing, debugging, modification, customisation, upgradation, enhancement and implementation is the recipient's location.
