Mr. Sachin,

Utilisation of Credit on inputs & input services used for providing output services is allowed. Where you are issuing a separate invoice for materials used in the event, that is as a reimbursement, it would mean that you acted as an agent for your client for precurement of such materials. The same would not be considered as inputs and hence no credit would be available on them.

But where the material gets consumed in the process of provisioning of service and the same is not charged separately from the client, it will come under the category of inputs and CENVAT Credit on the same would be available.
