I would like to know, if company is originally registered in Service Tax dept. as repairs and maintenance services and then wanted to start Erection, Commissioning & Installation services later, Is the company required to amend the certificate with new services.

Please advice.

Kindly let me know whether service tax credit can be availed by the company or not in the case below. The facts are as under:

A manufacturing company has place of removal as its factory gate. It sells their product to the dealer. The dealer sells this product to the customers. The company has an agreement with a bank that the bank will lend finance to the customers who would like to buy it. In return, company would pay Rs. 1000/- per product financed by the bank. This is called Subvention Charges by bank. The applies service tax @ 10.3% on this subvention charges & the same is paid by the manufacturing company to the bank.

Now, the question here is whether the manufacturing company can avail Cenvat Credit on the Service tax on Subvention charges paid by it to bank.
