Q. Query regarding Service Tax - Query regarding service tax input credit.

FACTS

There is a concern which manufactures artificial jewellery set, Furniture and garments. All products are exported by that concern. This concern also provides taxable output services in India like commission Services etc. Due to export we are not registered in excise but registered in service Tax only.

Query

Since Garments, Furniture and jewellery are exempted due to export now our query is that can we take cenvat credit on input service in manufacturing of artificial jewellery set, Furniture and garments and same is adjusted with our output Service Tax liability.

The fabric purchased for manufacturing of final goods is exempted whether it will have any impact on our input of service tax.

Our Input Services are:

Reverse charged under GTA

Input on Administrative Service like Rent, Constancy, insurance
