22 February 2008 Normally these charges are paid by CHA.

Credit does not seem to be eligible if the invoice for the charges is not in your name.

You may ask the CHA to seek a Invoice in your name for THC and then you may avail the service tax accordingly.

The cenvat credit " as such" has to be read in a wider sense.
