since you are not collecting the servicve tax (liability) then against what you will adjust the service tax paid by you on other services. If you had collected Rs. 100/- then you could have adjusted e.g. Rs. 50/- against the same which were paid on other services. the net liability would be Rs. 50/- only.

No, Cenvat credit cannot be refunded in your case
There is very few cases where Cenvat credit refund is possible
