Sir, We are the manufacterer of Chemicals and having Service Tax Registration under GTA as Service Receipent.

As per Pollution Norms we have to send chemicals wastes to Common Effluent Treatment Plant for Treatment purpose and said Treatment Plant Authority always Bill raised with Service Tax.

Can we take credit of said service tax and utilised to Central excise duty ?

Please reply.
