Points 1, 2 & 3
List of Services Specified Under Rule 2 (l)(ii)(A) of CENVAT credit Rules, 2004
1. Port Services [65 (105) (zn)]
2. Port Services in other port [65(105)(zzl)]
3. Air Port Services [65(105)(zzm)]
4. Commercial or Industrial Construction Services [65(105)(zzq)]
5. Construction of Complex Services [65(105)(zzzh)]
6. Works Contract Services [65(105)(zzzza)]
7. Architect’s Services [65 (105) (p)]
If the above services are used for the
(a) construction of a building or a civil structure or a part thereof; or
(b) laying of foundation or making of structures for support of capital goods
then these services shall not be considered as input services and accordingly CENVAT credit shall not be allowed. In other words, if the above services are used for provision of services other than construction etc in clause (a) & (b) then they shall be included in the definition of input services and accordingly CENVAT credit shall be taken.
Point 4
If contractor raises one bill for number of service then u can take CENVAT credit if as per provision of CENVAT credit rules cenvat credit is allowed in respect of all services covered by the invoice. But it is advisable in order to make it easily identifiable you should ask for separate invoices for separate services.
I hope above analysis will be helpful for you .
