Here it seems you have imported an item or 'goods'. Prima facie there is no service tax impact in India. However, if you import any service from abroad, the receiver of service in India has to pay the service tax on reverse charge mechanism.

The payment must be made in cash and not through cenvat credit. After cash outgo, you can avail or utilise the cenvat credit.

Regards,

The query is not very clear. Please feed some more facts to get specific replies. It is not possible for an importer to make a bill for himself. Please clarify the query.

I agree with you Prabhat! This query is not posted clearley. In general, packages with a value of less than US$200 will not require any duty charges.
