hi frndz

I am in doubt regarding claiming of cenvat credit on gta service pls confirm it

As the abatement notification is UNCONDITIONAL, can we claim cenvat credit of s.tax which we have paid as a service receiver under reverse charge after claiming abatement........?

pls support your answer with any judgement since the law is not clear on this issue......

Thanks

Under Rule 3 of CCR, 2004, credit is available on service tax payable under section 66A of Finance Act. But only st on freight inward is eligible. ST paid on outward freight is ineligible. As definition of input service itself says, "upto the place of removal".
