Dear member,

Please advice on the following query..

Suppose A & B had jointly taken a property on the rent and the rent is paid by them in the ratio of 2:1. But bill is raised by landowner in the name of "A". Whether B can take credit on the basis of this invoice for his part of service tax paid on rent. Or what should be correct procedure for claiming Cenvat Credit??

Regards,

Pinky Agarwal.
