AI Summary

Works contract tax credit not available against service tax; seek remedy under applicable state VAT law instead.
The withheld levy is a works contract tax under State VAT law and is not creditable against central service tax in the current framework; recovery or credit must be sought under the applicable State VAT/works contract tax provisions, with prospective harmonisation of credits under GST noted but not operative now.
