GTA must have been registered as a reciver of service. No credit tobe taken thought here is some dispute pending.

The input services used for provding the cargo handling services are eligible. If the card is being used for personal purposes the credit would nto be available.

Hi Mr Sushant, as per new service tax rules, You can not enjoy the benifit of cenvat credit arises through payment of credit cards, telephone bills etc., even they are used for professional purpose. Thanks and regards suraj pahuja

For GTA if you are registered as receiver of service, the credit is not admissible. If credit card is used for the business of cargo handling , same may qualify for credit.

Usage of cards should have some nexus with the service you provide either directly or indirectly..Then you can avail credit if you are not registered as service receiver.
