21 February 2008 i have clarified now can some one give me answer

22 February 2008 The best option would be to ask the franchise to charge service tax to the bank.

The Franchise should register under service tax.

When charging the bank for reimbursement it would be ideal to raise a bill for services provided to the bank.

If this is not workable then from the plain reading of the text of the act the service tax credit cannot be claimed as the service tax payer (DSA)in his capacity as a service provider has charged /collected and paid to the government and bank will not be eligible to claim.

Morever bank is not the receiver of the service of DSA on account of service tax paid by DSA.

Mere reimbursement will not result in eligibility.

As per the cenvat credit rules the service has to be consumed in relation to the business by the receiver in providing taxable output services, but here the service provided by DSA does not make the bank a recepient, but merely paying the cost incurred by the DSA.
