GST-ITC CLAIM ON FIXED ASSET OR DEPRECIATION

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

When dealing with fixed assets, you have a choice between claiming Goods and Services Tax (GST) Input Tax Credit (ITC) or making a provision for depreciation in your Profit & Loss account. Generally, claiming GST ITC is more advantageous as it provides a benefit for the full asset value. Depreciation, on the other hand, typically offers a tax benefit equivalent to your income tax rate, which is usually lower.

08 June 2022 If you can take ITC and utilse it then always better to take ITC since you will get benefit for the whole amount.
Instead in depreciation you will get a benefit of 30% if that it income tax rate.
