I'm a Tour Operator & Travel Agent based at Agra. I get my Domestic & International Ticketis issued by an IATA Agent in Delhi. For which my associate agent in Delhi issue Invoive in favour of my company, and charge Service Tax @ 0.6% on Basic Fare (in case of Domestic Tickets and @ 1.2% on basic fare (in case of Int'l air tickets).
I also issue my Invoice for the same ticket to hand over to my clients and charge the same rate of service Tax (as by my associate agent in Delhi.
Means, I charge the same amount of Service Tax, which I have already paid to my Associate Agent in Delhi (who is issuing tickets for my clients).
So my question is that-
1.Would I be entitled for Cenvat Credit of the Service Tax/ Cess, which I have already paid to my Agent in Delhi??
2. If I'm entitled for Cenvat Credit, should I not pay any Service Tax/ Cess (locally in Agra) for the tickets issued thru my agent in Delhi.
3. I have heard that if one claims Abatement, he is not entitled for Cenvat Credit. As I'm charging my clients @ 0.6% and 1.2% on the basic fare of tickets (means I have claimed the Abatement), will I be entitled for Cenvat Credit??
KINDLY ADVISE.
Yours Sincerely,
Anurag
