AI Summary

Input service eligibility: package tour service may be creditable if it qualifies as sales promotion activity under CENVAT rules.
A manufacturer may claim CENVAT credit for service tax charged on a package tour if the tour qualifies as a sales promotion activity within the statutory definition of input services; attention should be paid to the rule in the CENVAT Credit framework that identifies eligible input services, and only tours falling within that definition are creditable.
