Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the eligibility for claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) on insurance premiums. Generally, ITC is claimable on business-related fire insurance. However, for vehicle insurance, ITC is restricted if the vehicle has a seating capacity of up to 13 persons and you're not in the business of selling vehicles, passenger transport, or driving instruction. ITC on life insurance is not permissible.

Dear Harish

You can avail ITC on fire insurance of business.

But if your vehicle is upto seating capacity of 13 persons and you are not in the business of-
a. further supply of motor vehicles
b. passenger Transportations
c. imparting training on driving

you can not avail ITC on insurance or repair of vehicles.
also you can not avail ITC on Life insurance.
ITC can be claim for the FIRE INSURANCE...

But, Insurance for vehicle related ITC is based & activities on sec 17(5) of CGST act...
