Input on Freight out during Warranty Supply, Service Tax

[Srikanta Nagaraju]

Dear All,

 

We have an issue, we are the manufacturer of Equipments.

After the Sales of equipments we will supply warranty replacement to the customer at free of cost.

We charge the Excise on the goods and send the material with Freight Paid basis.

On the Freight we will avail the Service Tax Credit since the customer does not pay on the material as well as on the Freight .

The question is shall we avail the credit on freight out. also note that the ownership of the material is in our account.

Kindly request your feed back on the above.

Thanks

Srikanta

The credit shouldbe allowed as warranty is included in the original price. Maybe advisable to avail after intimation in writing to revenue under speed post.

Service tax credit for freight outward transportation is available only upto the place of removal.
