The procedure mentioned in your query is totally against the provisions of Cenvat Credit Rules. If the customer has availed the Cenvat Credit for the excess amount charged by you, there is no option to take is back. You should deposit the amount of service tax (inclusive of excess service tax) to the revenue.

Service tax is payable on receipt basis therefore you may correct you original bill. On the amount recived you would be required to pay the servcie tax. If on composite basis you may divide the amount received by 1.102 or 1.224 as the case maybe to arrive ta the basic value. On his d/n or supplementary bill yopu would not be eligible for any credits in my view.
