Does the sale of software applications to India attract any tax in India?


We have been receiving requests for software from prospective customers in India. Does anyone know what are the tax obligations, if any, of a foreign company selling software (say over the internet) to India? We do not have a permanent establishment in India. What taxes, if any, are applicable? Would it be different if we had a independent canvassing agent? Does this constitute trading “in India” as opposed to “with India”?
