upto what time I can file service tax refund under rule 5 of cenvat credit rules, 2004 for the quarter Jan,16 to mar, 16 I.e. Q4 of FY 2015-16.

hello sir in case of reverse charge mechanism can service reciver can claim cenvat credit even if there is no services rendered by him and claim refund

My company is in manufacturing of electrical parts. Aside from this we are also doing construction of building for a third party. 3rd party is a company. While raising the invoice we are charging service tax on 40% value of invoice as per Rule 2A(ii) of Service tax (determination of value) rules 2006. It is original contract.
The service tax charged from customer is paid to govt. via CENVAT (not in cash). The CENVAT used belongs to inputs & input services of manufacturing not of construction.
Now Superintendent of excise is telling that it is not allowed as one to one relation is not satisfied.
But as per me, we are manufacturers - hence, as per CENVAT credit rules 2004 - Rule 3(4)(e) we can discharge the liability through CENVAT.
Kindly suggest.
