If you are a service provider, then the postal and courier service shall have direct nexus with providing of output service. If you are a manufacturer, same shall have nexus with manufacturing activities. Also such services relating to advertisement, sales promotion, purchase of inputs, accounting auditing, recruitment, business exhibition , legal service etc. qualify for cenvat credit.
