Sir, please clarify the issue if possible.
My client running a restaurant and lodge. The lodge along with the hotel was purchased in the year 2008. He can utilize the services of consultants, project management and auditors etc., for renovation and repair of the hotel and lodge. At the time of filing of service tax return for the year 2009-2010, he can show the service tax amount charged by the consultants etc., as cenvat credit ( but not utilized against the ST payment) in ST -3 returns. At that time Mandap keeper is only a taxable service.
Now, the audit party of the ST, has raised a query for reimbursement of Cenvat credit along with interest because of improper availment of cenvat credit. Sir, please clarify this issue
