CENVAT CREDIT IS EARNED BY WAY OF PAYING SERVICE TAX FOR INPUT JOB WHICH WAS USED FOR OUTPUT JOB.
THE THEME IS = FOR A SINGLE JOB ONLY ONCE THE SERVICE TAX WILL BE PAID BY THE END USER
YOU WILL DEDUCT THE SERVICE TAX AMOUNT PAID FOR INPUT SERVICE FORM THE OUTPUT SERVICE. THE BALANCE WILL BE PAID TO SERVICE TAX AUTHORITY.
EVEN TELEPHONE BILLS (Service Tax Portion) ARE INPUT SERVICE. . YOU CAN CLAIM CENVAT CREDIT ON TELEPHONE BILL AND PAY THE BALANCE AMOUNT TO SERVICE TAX AUTHORITY
IF YOU HAVE NOTHING AS INPUT SERVICE QUESTION OF CENVAT CREDIT DOES NOT ARISE
