IF a Firm has paid freight to transporter then it is obvious that it has to pay service tax on the value after abatement (not 30% ST, it is value*30%*14% (also sb cess)) Cenvat Credit cannot be utlised for the payment of Service Tax under Reverse Charge but what we have paid as a Reverse Charge in Service Tax we will get credit
