18 January 2013 they can only claim the service tax post registration.

if the unit is exporter then follow the stpes:

> get register with service tax
> file the return for the period
> After that file the refund application before one year from the date of export

21 January 2013 for eg: If the export is for the month of Apr12 & the date of invoice is lets say 29-Apr-2012 then you need to claim for refund application for apr12 credit on or before 29-apr-2013 like this you have to determine the eligible date for refund scheme.
