DEAR SIR,

WE ARE A PAPER MANUFACTURING COMPANY.

WE HAVE MADE PAYMENT TO A CONTRACTOR TOWARDS ROAD CONSTRUCTION WORK.

THE CONTRACTOR IS REGISTERED UNDER SERVICE TAX COMPOSITION SCHEME & PROVIDED US A INVOICE WHICH IS ENCLOSED HEREWITH.

CAN WE CLAIM CENVAT CREDIT OF SERVICE TAX PAID AGAINST THIS INVOICE. I DOUBT.

IF WE CANT CLAIM CENVAT CREDIT ON THE BASIS OF THIS INVOICE.

WHAT IS THE CORRECT PROCEDURE TO CLAIM CENVAT CREDIT IN THIS CASE?

WILL A REVISED INVOICE HELP US?

KINDLY CLARIFY IN DETAIL & OBLIGE.

THANKS & REGARDS,

 

LALIT DHABRIA
