As per decision of Guj. HC in Cadila Healthcare expenses directly relating to manufacture before pre-operation stage can be taken.However, Cenvat credit is admissible only within 1 year from the date of invoice.

You can avail CENVAT CREDIT right now (within one year of issued of invoice) and utilise whenever you want . There is no time limit for utilisation of CENVAT Credit.
