18 April 2025 As per Section 17(5) of the CGST Act, ITC is not allowed on motor vehicles used for personal purposes or for transportation of persons, except in certain cases. ITC is disallowed on cars with seating capacity up to 13 persons (including the driver) unless the vehicle is used for specified business purposes such as transportation of passengers, imparting training, or further supply of such vehicles.

If the car you purchased outright is a passenger vehicle with seating capacity less than or equal to 13, ITC on the GST paid is not allowed..
