07 July 2010 Well in a more general terms, suppose a HO is there & it has 4 factories. Now as in Indirect Tax a Factory gets registered & not an Office or HO.

Now suppose a service is provided in all 4 factories but the bill is in name of the Company & addressed to the HO. In order to take the credit of the Service tax, HO becomes an ISD & distributes the credit.

Mind u if any of the factory is producing an exempted product then it will not get any input benefit.however the distribution criteria depends on the ISD, HO can distribute in the proportion as it wants.

07 July 2010 Not only the services received by the factories but also the services received by the HO itself like CA Fees etc. can be distributed if the output services are taxable
