Service tax input credit

hi! you can utilised 100% credit input except on capital goods.capital goods 50% input is allowed rest 50% carried over to next year and you can claim in next year

Service Tax credit is available only if the input service is used in relation to output service. It need not fall under same category. In your case, the input service cannot be utilised 100% against your output service as you are also providing exempt service ( Trading activity) Under such circumstance you can avail 10% credit but can utilise only 20% of the liability of your service tax . for eg. if your service tax payable is Rs.100 you can utilise only Rs. 20. However you can avail credit of 16 services as provided in rule 6(5) which provides that full tax credit will be allowed when they are used as input service, for providing both taxable and exempt services. Or If you are risk taking and have the tendancy to fight back you may apportion the credit with respect to your taxable and exempt services and avail proportionate credit Please note there is no provision in the act that allows proportionate credit. The rule that exist today is that if you avail full credit in your case then you have to pay 10% of the value ofexempt service. It would be ideal to evaluate your position in the matter after discussion with your leagal department and or consultant in the matter
