If Rent is paid for property from where business is being carried out then yes credit on same can be availed otherwise not because As per section 16(1) credit of only those inputs can be claimed which are used or intended to be used during the course or for furtherance of business

Thanks in advance.

No you cannot take credit of service tax paid on rent because under pre GST regime you are not eligible for that credit only those credits are carried forward under transitional provisions for which who can also claim credit in pre gst regime.
