In case of service tax liability under reverse charge, cenvat credit is available only on payment basis i.e. once ST liability for reverse charge is discharged, service receiver is eligible to take cenvat credit. My query is: If ST liability under reverse charge for the month of April and May is discharged along with the interest in the month of june, then while making payment for the ST liability for output services for june month, can we claim cenvat for the ST amount paid under reverse charge for the month of april and june.

Yes, you can take the cenvat credit of duty paid under the reverse charge system for the month of April and May. You can utilise these cenvat for the duty payment in the month of June.

means if today i will pay reverse charge for the month of april and may and after making such payment while making further payment for output service tax liability today only then we can claim cenvat

After the making payment in the same month you can take cenvat credit i.e. you have received the invoice on 2nd june and pay the duty under reverse charge system then you will take the cenvat credit in the month of july for the payment of june.

today is the last date for making payment of service tax and we have not paid reverse charge since april i.e. for april, may and june, reverse charge liability is still to be discharged. In case if i will pay reverse charge for all 3 months first and immediately after that make payment for output service tax liabiltiy for the month of june, then cenvat of all 3 months can be taken or not..?? or only april and may month credit is available.?
