Dear Snehal Shah,

Service tax on courier is righly eligible for taking cenvat credit. As per definition of input service, you can avail cenvat credit of service tax on all services which are directly or indirectly releated to your business. Please refer definition of input service and inform the excise person regarding eligibility of service tax credit.
