CBEC
CBEC has exempted the requirement of enclosing photocopies of Railway Receipts (RR) with the ‘Service Tax for transportation of goods by rail’ (STTG) Certificate for availing CENVAT Credit. The Board has prescribed a fresh procedure for availing CENVAT Credit of service tax paid on transportation of goods by rail. Instead of providing copies of railway receipts, the details of RRs shall form part of the STTG certificate in a tabular format provided as an annexure to the circular. The circular also provides for the format of STTG Certificate. Rule 9 of CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004 provides for the documents on the basis of which CENVAT credit shall be taken by the manufacturer or the provider of output service or input service distributor, as the case may be.
