Issues: Admissibility of input service credit on Tour Operator Service
Analysis:

The grounds of appeal did not include a prayer for remand on the specific issue of Tour Operator Service. The judge referred to a precedent set by the Hon'ble Mumbai High Court in a similar case, where it was established that input service credit on services availed in the course of manufacturing is admissible. Since the appeal did not raise the issue of Tour Operator Service credit admissibility explicitly, the judge found no merit in the appeal and dismissed it.
