The magnetic, magneto-transport and ARPES studies of Fe and S co-doped Bi2Se3 were investigated. With doping concentration magneto-resistance (MR) gradually decreases and for a certain doping concentration giant negative MR is observed which persists up to room temperature. Magnetic measurement indicates that the negative MR is observed when ferromagnetic ordering is induced with Fe doping. The magnetic ordering can be attributed with the RKKY interaction. Positive MR reappears with larger doping concentration which may be attributed to the decrease of FM ordering due to the turning off of the spin-orbit coupling leading to the destruction of non-trivial bulk state. This in-effect de-hybridizes the conduction band with the Fe spin. The ARPES data also indicates that above a critical doping concentration (x>0.09) the non-trivial bulk state is completely destroyed.
