There is no such restriction to utilse credit for the same category service. The mechanism of CENVAT credit of 20% of output service service tax payable is applicable when the provider of service provides both taxable and exempted service and he is not able to determine the CENVAT credit. The above was available till 31.03.2008. There is change in rules from 01.04.2008
