CENVAT credit allowed for legal services but denied for taxi hiring due to input services exclusion under reverse charge.
CENVAT credit may be availed for legal services taxed under the reverse charge mechanism, but credit for taxi hiring charges is not permissible because taxi hiring is expressly excluded from the definition of Input Services. (AI Summary)
