05 April 2009 Service tax set off against VAT is ruled out as both are different statute, one being cenral and other state

Service tax and Excise can be set off against each other, but agains subjec to conditions, please refer Cenvat Credit Rules.

Further Vat can be set off against CST liability, subject to provisions of the state.

Since you have not stated the state in which the transaction it is proposed, the said clarification cannot be awarded

However Maharashtra State allows such set off of CST against VAT
