11 July 2015 Dear Sir

we had received rental service from landlord,monthly rent comes to Rs.1 Lakhs, Landlord doesn't charge service tax on his bill, now he is asking us to pay service tax on Rs.1 Lakhs from oct 14 to till date, now if we pay the service tax which was not charged/paid early, can we eligible to take input tax credit on service tax paid.

Service from oct 2014 to till date

11 July 2015 See the cenvat credit Rules it is a delayed remittance so cenvat credit can be taken only after remittance of service tax. So the credit can be taken in Aug-15.
