CESTAT Delhi has allowed Cenvat credit on maintenance charges for common area of a business premises taken on rent by assessee.

The CENVAT credit of service tax paid under section 66B of the Finance Act, 1994 was available as transitional credit under section 140(1) of the CGST Act and that legal position has not changed due to amendment of section 140(1) on account of following reasons:
Bombay High Court has held that it was within the discretion of the assessee whether to utilize Cenvat credit at one of its unit or distribute it amongst other units providing output The High Court however dismissed appeal observing that the entire exercise was revenue neutral as distribution of Cenvat credit to various units would result in lesser service tax being paid by them.
Goods in question were never received by the assessee in its factory and therefore, the assessee’s claim of having consumed the same was not genuine.
