As we know that additional cess of 1% Secondary and Higher Education Cess is leviable on taxable services with effect from 11-05-2007 and on Goods manufactured (Central Excise Duty) and Goods Imported (Customs Duty) it has been levied with effect from 1-3-2007.
Now a general query is being raised, the manner and procedure for availing and utilizing this additional 1% cess.
As per the amended rule 3 of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004, Cenvat Credit of "education cess" and "secondary and higher education cess" will be treated at par.
Cess (E Cess or SH E Cess) is to be used to pay cess (E cess or SH E Cess) only. One can be used to pay second but both can not be used to pay service tax or excise duty.
Cenvat credit for education cess limited to payment of education-related cesses; not usable for service tax or excise duty. Under amended Rule 3 of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004, credit of education cess and secondary and higher education cess are treated at par and may be availed and utilised only for payment of education-related cess liabilities. Cess credit cannot be applied against central excise duty or service tax; each must be preserved for cess payments, though either cess credit may be used to discharge the other cess type.Press 'Enter' after typing page number.
