My company is in Security Agency Industry. Problem we are facing is some of our clients demands that they do not have any vehicle for Guards Rotation suppose in any Port. Now the company is hiring vehicle from Vehicle Vendors and give it to clients on No Profit No Loss basis.

Now we bill out client as below.
Charges For Security Service 100
Charges For Vehicle Hiring 40
Total 140

We collect tax on 140 and pay to Government

But For this vehicle vendor Payment on 40 we have to pay service tax as per Reverse Charge Mechanism.
So we pay tax on 40

Now can we claim tax on 40 is Input Credit or not???? If my company memorandum permits and Rent A cab service is included in ST2??? Though Rent A Cab Registration is as Service Receiver only.

Please Revert. Thanks in Advance. Also give reference of specific Section and Notification.
