Being a Tour Operator & Travel Agent, I need to take services from my sub-agents for my clients. For which they issue Invoice in favour of my company and charge Service Tax on the service provided.
Kindly advise, if I can take Cenvat Credit of the service tax, I have paid already to my sub-agent.
Here, I would like to mention that I'm charging my clients @ 2.58% on the Total Tour Value. Means I'm claiming 75% Abatement, applicable on Tour Operator's Services.

No, you can not take CENVAT when you availed abatement. The exemption would apply only when you have not availed CENVAT credit used for providing such taxable services.
