2. I have received a bill from one of the vendors Dt: 09 Jan-16, with 14.5% ST (Advertising Agency Service), i paid him complete amount in Mar-16 itself but forget to use Cenvat Credit so can i use ST amount for Cenvat Credit in current FY 16-17 H1 return, if yes what entry i have to do in accounts.(Balance sheet).
I have not done any provision in FY 15-16 H2 return for both the above cases.
