29 August 2016 There Are many case laws which support that the services received outside factory is eligible for Input credit if such services are directly or indirectly relates to mfg. of goods.
In your case if R&D is primary factor for your Manufacturing process than you can take the credit of same
You can refer Case law of Zydus tech Ltd. v. CST (2013)60 VST 376(CESTAT) for R&D expenditure
and for service received outside the factory you can refer........
1. CCE v. Vikram Cement (2009) 22 STT 492(CESTAT SMB)
2. CCE v. Ultratech Cement (2012) 278 ELT 523 (CESTAT)
