06 April 2010 Yes it would be admissible. Please see rule 6 (3) which in my view does nto have restriction for trading. Only restriction is for exempted services or goods.

06 April 2010 credit can be availed only when the services have been used for providing output service. Trading is not an output service and as such may not be eligible for credit.
