A new recycling plant is questioning whether the Input Tax Credit (ITC) is claimable on a tin shade constructed for machinery. The core issue is whether this structure qualifies as Plant & Machinery (allowing ITC) or a Building (disallowing ITC). The consensus is that ITC is generally not available on such shades, even if considered part of the Plant & Machinery, and the cost should be capitalised.

In a Newly incorporated Recycling Scrap Plant, Tin shade constructed for several Plant & Machineries, so, it will be categorized as P&M and ITC will be available on the material purchased for such construction or it will be categorized under Building and ITC will not be available ?

My question was that, as Tin shade was constructed as per pollution Control compliances and chimneys are also there. So, it will be treated as Plant & Machinery or Building ? If, we consider it as P&M, ITC will be available on it otherwise not and it will be capitalized.
