08 October 2016 We are paying service tax(under abatement) to an agency for arranging transportation, accommodation charges and booking if air tickets to our employees who goes on project work (which is our company's business). My doubt is whether we avail CENVAT credit of abated service tax that we have paid on such services..? Thanks in advance..
