Refund of accumulated/unutilised Cenvat Credit of Service Tax - ‘nexus’ between the input services and the export services - Indisputably, in the refund proceedings under Rule 5 ibid as amended, any such attempt to deny or to vary the credit availed during the period under consideration is not permissible. If the quantum of the Cenvat Credit is to be varied or to be denied on the ground that certain services do not qualify as input services or on the ground of ‘no nexus’, then the same could have been done only by taking recourse to Rule 14 ibid - since the provisions of Rule 14 ibid have not been invoked, the refund of Cenvat Credit as claimed by the Appellant under Rule 5 ibid cannot be denied to them and the same is admissible. - AT
