Sir,

To avail the credit of service tax paid by the courier, first of all, you have to be manufacturer of excisable goods on which you are paying excise duty or you should be an output service provider in providing which you are using the imported goods. Otherwise, if you are a dealer, you cannot utilize the credit.
