A unit has been set up in Himachal Pradesh where specifically by notification excise duty is exempt. But, some service providers levy service tax. Is service tax automatically exempt? or Should we file a refund claim for service tax?

Area based Exemption in excise duty will not result into automatic exemption of service tax unless there is specific notification to that effect. Only Service provided in J & K are out purview of service tax.
Further Rule 5A of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 only deals with refund of Cenvat credit of duty paid on inputs used in manufacture in specific areas and does not cover refund of service tax paid on input service.
There, you will not able to file refund claim.

Exemption for excise duty is available under area based exemption for the units located Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand not for the service tax. You will set off the cenvat credit of service tax if accumulating on input services towards your output service tax liability.
