14 October 2011 The basic rule to avail Service Tax Input is, it should be related to input items for generation of income. So, can't be taken in your case.

The service tax paid on any expenses, which do not participate in income generation can't be available to adjust from service tax payable on income.

Eligibility to take service tax credit changes as per the nature of income generated.
