28 February 2018 First of all currently RCM is applicable on services specified u/s 9(3), and as per section 9(3), RCM is applicable for passenger transport services provided through electronic commerce operator, whereby the electronic commerce operator will have to collect and pay GST, so the clause is not applicable in your scenario.

28 February 2018 Dear Deepa,
Kindly note that reverse charge liability of registered dealers in respect of transactions with the unregistered dealers has been temporarily suspended with effect from 28th June 2017 via notification no 8/2017 .The suspension would remain in force till 31st March 2018.
Now as far as your query regarding the availability of input tax credit is concerned, the condition for eligibility of credit of tax is that the services should have been used for the purpose of the business.
Therefore you shall be eligible to take the input tax credit.
