thanks for the reply, as per your reply i have to pay service tax 695.25/- on 75% of rs.7500(bill amount ) + 231.75/- charged by the service provider so the total service tax payable is 927/-

know can you please tell me what is my cenvet credit amount rs.695.25/-(75% of bill amount or complete service tax rs.927/-)

16 November 2012 Dear Shekhar whatever you have paid through vendor bill shall be your cenvat credit and whatever you have paid under RCM method you can take credit onwards period after payment. So total 927 may be available to you as a cenvat cerdit
