Can I take input credit for sales commission paid to comission agent under the following conditions.
we deal in two kinds of products
1) Manufactured by us.
2) Traded by us.
The mfg product & traded product are entirely different. Example Mfg product is auto component & traded product is Electronic toy.I pay sales commission to a selling agent on toys.
Can I take input credit for service tax paid on sales commission for toy(traded product) & utilize the same for payment of excise on auto component.(mfg product)

In such case you will have to follow rule 6 which restrict utilisation of credit of service tax to 20% of service tax payable on your output service or goods manufactured by you.
In case you do not follow the said procedure you can take full credit however you will have to pay 10% of value of exempt goods/ traded goods.
Or if you are able to maintain sepearate inventory for the services consumed against manufacture and trading then you can set off full service tax credit.
In the instance case of credit on trade product you can utilise only 20% of credit
