I am afraid that you are reffering a very old provision of law pertaining to service tax.  Now, if you are manufacting or providing taxable or exempted service by using common input service then you would have to reverse the Equivalent CENVAT credit by giving the prior intimation to the concerned superintendent of Central Excise, Or as per formula mentioned in Rule 6 you would have to reverse CENVAT credit or pay an amount equivalent to 6% of the value of such services.
