Am not sure , i think we can claim input credit pertaining to previous years, because there is no time limit for claiming service tax input credit

Yes. 

U can claim;

There is no time limit prescribed for availing the CENVAT credit; 

ensure that sufficient documents are available exercising your rights;

how can you reduce the cenvat credit of 2006-07 from the expenses of current year i.e. 2011-12??

What abt the accounting standards and principles.

 there is no time limit for cenvat credit availment.   .   But how to convince Dept that you have not availed earlier.  Therefore you may inform dept that you are doing so.

 

whether the credit has been availed or not can be proved from the returns of that particular period (ER1) ... if the credit has not been availed then the same can be availed and utilised right now ...
