27 October 2015 Cenvat credit rules specifically not allows such claims. It is specifically excluded from the definition of input services.

27 October 2015 sir, if it is excluded under the definition of input service then why service tax department allow ST credit paid on hotel bill, restaurant bill, i think expenditure also not mandatory to provide the output service.
