17 November 2020 Dear Sir/Madam,
Section 17(5)(b) of CGST Act 2017 ...
(i) food and beverages, outdoor catering, beauty treatment, health services, cosmetic and plastic surgery, leasing, renting or hiring of motor vehicles, vessels or aircraft referred to in clause (a) or clause (aa) except when used for the purposes specified therein, life insurance and health insurance;

its listed in blocked credit so you cannot avail the ITC on life insurance.

regards,
Bhavya.P
