You may send back the invoice for necessary correction.

AI Summary

Service tax credit: unsigned vendor invoices with required particulars should be returned for correction to validate credit. When a vendor invoice lacks the vendor's signature but contains the required invoice particulars under the Cenvat credit regime, the practical guidance is to return the invoice to the vendor for correction so the supplier can issue a corrected, authenticated invoice to align the document with compliance expectations for claiming service tax credit.
