The credit for input services is only available on payment. Therefore only for the March ST payment would the amount be usable.
Invoice is required even when advance is received by the service provider.Cenvat Credit should be available to service receiver on basis of this invoice as 'service to be provided' is also a taxable service w.e.f 13-05-2005. Hence the Service provider will have to pay the service tax what he has collected from you in the month of feb and pay before 5th / 6th of march 09. You are also eligible to utilise the cenvat credit for the month of feb 09.please refer circular no.B1/6/2005-TRU dated 27-7-2005 para 27.
