This discussion clarifies whether GST paid on office expenses, such as computers used for general office purposes, can be included in a refund claim under an inverted duty structure. The consensus is that ITC on such expenses is generally eligible for refund. However, if the asset has been capitalised, the refund is not available. It's also noted that ITC on services and capital goods is not permitted for inverted duty structure refunds.
Can I claim GST on office expenses(i.e, Itc on the computer used for office purposes not directly used for manufacturing) also as a part of the refund?
