Under rules 6 (3) there is no specific bar on credits used for trading activity. However it maybe wise to estimate based oncosting porinciples, the duty credit allocable for trading and avail short credit to that extent. It is a fact that majority of input service wouldbe used for provding services and proportion of services for trading wouldbe less.
