Dear Sir,

There is no any confusion from your query.

Being a manufacturer of final products, can take cenvat credit on input services (service tax credit) and the same can be utilized to discharge the excise duty on clearance of his final product, even though he is not a service provider. 

Rule 3(1) and 3(4) of CENVAT credit Rules 2004 support the above.

 

The ST credit to pay the central excise duty and the central excise credit for payment of serrvice tax subject to other conditions has been enabled from 10.9.2004.
