If you had removed solvent cement as such (on payment of duty) then you are eligible for taking CENVAT.

AI Summary

Cenvat credit allowed when inputs are removed as such on payment of duty, permitting credit for supplied solvent cement. CENVAT credit on solvent cement is available where the solvent cement was removed 'as such' on payment of excise duty; removal as such on payment of duty qualifies the solvent cement supplied with PVC pipes for CENVAT credit.
