Dear Ravi,
In the amended definition of ‘input service’ the words “for setting up” and “activities relating to business” were omitted. From the revised definition of input services, the querist is not entitled to avail any CENVAT credit of input services with effect from 01.04.2011, inasmuch as all these input services are only in relation to setting up of a premises of provider of output service. Hence, the question of availing the input services provided by the service providers and consumed for setting up of the factory does not arise from 01.04.2011, i.e., the date from which the ‘input service’ definition has been amended by the Government.
