Dear Sir,
Shall we take service tax credit on Reverse charge paid by us on Advocate services who is rendering Arbitration case against vacate of Office premises 3-4 years back. At that time we had sperate office and factory premises and had seperate Service Tax registrations. But due to some reasons we have vacated the office and surrendered the registration and shifted to factory itself. We have all the registration, incl. Service Tax, Excise & other regn. My question is whether we can take credit on these services currently.
Eligibility for Service Tax Credit on Advocate Services Under Reverse Charge: Key Points and Timeframe Considerations A user inquired about the eligibility to claim service tax credit on reverse charge paid for advocate services related to an arbitration case concerning vacated office premises. The query arose after the office was closed, and the business shifted to a factory with separate service tax registrations. One response suggested that manufacturers have a strong eligibility for such credits, while service providers must establish a connection to output services. Another response noted that although the Finance Act, 1994 does not specify a time limit for claiming CENVAT credit, judgments suggest a reasonable timeframe of 1 to 1.5 years. (AI Summary)
