16 July 2014 As per last discussion, we should not avail the service tax input on the behalf of CHA service but I discuss with some friends and according to them there is some way for taking the Service tax input on the behalf of CHA services.

A) U/s 2 (i) Cenvat Credit Rule 2004
B) U/s 2 (f) Excise Manufacture Definition of 1st Stage dealer.

Now please finalize.
