VINCENT PINTO: FTP Para 9.51 defines the Service provider. Earlier Para 9.53 (ii) was for Supply of a service from India to a service consumer of any other country in India was eligible for SFIS (Served from India Scheme).. No under Para 9.51 (ii), the words In India have been removed and it reads as Supply of a service from India to service consumers of any other country : (Mode 2- Consumption abroad). A service provider in the hotel industry was covered under Para 9.53(ii) earlier. Now as per the definition of service provider in Para 9.51 (ii), it appears that the hotels providing services to service consumers of any other country within India are not eligible for SEIS benefits. Can someone clarify on this please.
