The ratio of depot sale to manufacturing sale is applicable when the credit has been held to be inadmissible for the entire premise which was the case of the department in the show cause notice. Since the Appellant has availed a total amount of ₹ 10,38,070/- as input service tax credit for this renting of immovable property service, therefore 6.09% of the said amount i.e. ₹ 63,219/- is only ineligible for credit since that was used for trading activity and not for the manufacturing purpose - the matter needs correct quantification of demand to be recovered from the appellant.

The period involved in this Appeal is between April, 2011 to October, 2013.

In order to support his calculation the appellant has filed the table which is as under:- Cenvat credit proposed to be dis-allowed as per Show Cause Notice Inadmissible Cenvat on credit renting based on the area used for depot i.e. @6.09% Inadmissible Cenvat credit availed on miscellaneous input services Eligible Cenvat credit .....

The ratio of depot sale to manufacturing sale is applicable when the credit has been held to be inadmissible for the entire premise which was the case of the department in the show cause notice but it was not accepted by the ld. Commissioner. According to me once the ld.
