06 March 2014 Thank you Sir. We have collected tax @ 3.09% (Taking 75% as abatement) & were paying to the government under the code 440334 i.e. 65(105)(zzzh)- Construction of residential complex service & 65(105)(zzq)- Construction services other than residential complex, including commercial/industrial buildings or civil structures. Then can we claim cenvat credit?

06 March 2014 if u have opted for abatement then in my view u cannot take cenvat credit as it will lead to double deduction...refer Notification no.30/2012 by cbec.
