Yes. Service Tax is applicable. If Service Provider is other than corporate & Service Receiver is Corporate reverse charge is also applicable. on 40% of Invoice value you have to pay service tax as service receiver. Whatever you pay under reverse charge is not cenvetable as it is specifically excluded under the definition of Input Service given under 2(l) of CCR 2004.
