09 January 2015 Yes sir may i get your clarification regarding my above question ???

09 January 2015 CENVAT credit on Input Services and Capital Goods Allowed As per explanation 2 of the determination of value rules, there is no restriction on claiming the CENVAT credit of Input Services and Capital Goods. Thus the provider of works contract service can claim CENVAT credit of Input Services and Capital Goods as per the CENVAT Credit rules 2004.

On the same analogy, service tax paid under RCM can be claimed.
