Yes, all services are eligible for credit. The point is clear from the definition of input services itself in cenvat credit rules.

Dear Sir,

For cenvat credit  eligibility, the input services should be availed directly or indirectly in or in relation to manufacture .  So there should be nexcus to manufacture.    In that context,  I doubt whether Guest house expenses, corporate amenity/credit card memberships will be eligible.

kindly clarify
