Please clarify

16 July 2013 Hi Uday

As per the Notification No: 41/2012 dtd 29.06.2012

Refund of service tax can be claimed only for specified services


specified services” means-
(i) in the case of excisable goods, taxable services that have been used beyond the place of removal, for the export of said goods;

Hence based on the notification, claim for refund can be made only on services used for Export

Further condition is
no CENVAT credit of service tax paid on the specified services used for export of goods has been taken under the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004;
