Assessee and Department have been involved in tug of war on cenvat credit on inputs, input services and capital goods. The assessee attempting to avail credit of every possible input / capital goods /input service by liberally interpreting their definitions and department denying the Cenvat credit by following the principle of literal interpretation. Cenvat Credit on sales commission has always been a sensitive issue since dawn.
The taxable services availed by the appellant were to occasion the exports. There appears nexus between export and the service so availed which cannot be ruled out by the authorities below. Once that is present, denial of the refund of the accumulated CENVAT credit to the exporter is unreasonable.

Following the ratio laid down by the Hon ble High Court of Andhra Pradesh in the aforesaid judgment, appellant is entitled to refund. When law itself does not deny grant of refund of unutilised credit there shall be no question of limitation to apply.
