CESTAT held that when road construction is exempt, every activity related to the road construction is exempt including consulting engineer services, thus, the assessee providing consulting engineer services in the matter of road construction is entitled to get exemption under Sl. No. 13(a) of the Notification No. 25/2012-Service Tax dated June 20, 2012
Exemption of excise duty could not be denied for mere taking credit of duty paid on inputs used in the manufacture of goods as if assessee was availing such Cenvat credit and such wrongly availed Cenvat credit could be recovered under Rule 14 of Cenvat Credit Rules. Therefore, recovery of an amount under Rule 6(3) was without the authority of law and hence demands could not be sustained under Rule 6(3) and need to be set aside.
