He submitted that the definition of input services is of wide amplitude and has been interpreted by courts to include those services which are integrally connected with the business of manufacturing and the cost of which forms a part of the cost of final product. The definition of input service specifically provides that any service used whether directly or indirectly, in or in relation to the manufacture of final products is eligible for Cenvat credit. He explained that transportation of inputs into the factory is an essential activity in the process of manufacture, because without the inputs being made available within the factory, the activity of manufacture cannot be carried out. Inputs ie. Bulk Cement is received in the factory through rail wagons using railway tracks. That without railway track, the rail wagons cannot run. The manpower recruitment services were availed by the appellant for upkeep/maintenance of the railway tracks laid within the factory premises; such maintenance services can be carried out only by labourers who are experienced with such job. He relied on the decision laid in the case of M/s India Cement Ltd Vs CCE& ST Guntur in the Final Order No .A/30610-30611/2016 dated 20-07-2016 and argued that in the said case, credit was allowed on manpower recruitment services used for maintenance and cleaning, electrical maintenance works under taken at mines.
