Yes the service tax is payable on the transaction since it is a transaction of works contract wherein there is transfer of property in goods and provision of construction service.
Factory building being original works, service tax is applicable on 70% of the total value.
The availavilty of input credit would require analysis of section 2(k) of the cenvat credit rules, 2004.
Request you to provide us the exact details of the construction.

Value of service portion in the execution of a works contract��shall be equivalent to the gross amount charged for the works contract less the value of property in goods transferred in the execution of the said works contract.
Here gross amount shall not includes sales tax or VAT paid or payable on the transfer of property in goods .
If the service portion cannot be determined as mentioned above ST has to be paid on 40% of the total amount charged for the works contract ie, 40% shall be treated as service portion.
Regarding CENVAT credit, SPand SR reside in taxable territory, partial reverse charge aaplicable. In this case, credit of tax paid by the service recipient under partial reverse charge scheme would be available only after making payment of value of input service to the service provider and payment of service tax to the Central Government. The said credit would be available on the basis of the tax payment challan.

Both SR & SP are in taxable territory. I think as the SP is an individual, he has to charge Service tax on 20% value and SR has to pay on balance 20%. Can i take credit of both?

Yes . you are correct . 20% by SP and 20% by SR. Yes you can take credit of both

Yes . you are correct . 20% by SP and 20% by SR. So total 40%.
Yes you can take credit of both
Yes you can take credit of both
