You can ask your accountant or you can call the Indiana state government's sales tax office.
Hope this helps. If so please mark solved, if not please ask more questions. Thanks!

In addition to contacting the Indiana sales and use tax office, you should also check with both your county and city, as each of these entities may have requirements that are different from the state.
If you are purchasing any wholesale supplies (not paying sales tax) you use in your business, you might need to pay use tax for the supplies. Use tax is usually submitted on the same form as sales tax.
Keep in mind that sales and use tax regulations change. If your specific service is not currently subject to sales tax, it could be at some time in the future. More states are taxing services as they are looking for more revenue, so it's worth checking on this at least twice a year.
