Explanation to 17 (5) (d) is reproduced as : "For the purposes of clauses (c) and (d), the expression “construction” includes re-construction, renovation, additions or alterations or repairs, to the extent of capitalisation, to the said immovable property"
In my opinion if the renovation to the rented building is not capitalised as an asset in the building the same shall be eligible for input tax credit. Whether the expense is required to be capitalised or not would depend on the circumstances.
