In service tax, refund of CENVAT is available in case of export of goods.
I want know can refund of CENVAT be claimed in other cases also.

For e.g.:- I am providing construction services and paying service tax on output services provided by me. I am also using CENVAT credit of service tax paid by me on input services and duty paid on capital goods for discharging my service tax liability.

My query is:-
If I am having balance in CENVAT receivable account at end of year can I claim refund of it? I know I can use it for discharging my service tax liability on output service, but if CENVAT will not going to be utilized at all in future than what to do?
