- **Excise Duty Input**: Credit this account to offset the Service Tax liability, as you are utilizing the input credit of Excise Duty.

### Additional Considerations:

- Ensure compliance with GST (Goods and Services Tax) regulations if applicable, as the Excise Duty and CST might be integrated into GST.
- Keep detailed records and documentation of the purchase invoice, Excise Duty payment, and CST payment for future audits and compliance checks.

By following these entries, you correctly account for the purchase of machinery, including Excise Duty and CST, and ensure proper utilization of the Excise Duty input credit against Service Tax liabilities when providing job work services. Always consult with a tax advisor or accountant familiar with local tax laws to ensure compliance and accurate reporting.
