ITC / Input 315 views 7 replies

We have company registerd car used by director. The car service and tyre change invoice given by dealer has our company GST number printed in it. Can we take GST credit? Also, can we take insurance premium paid on this car GST credit?

No, Credit is allowed On motor vehicles
See Section 17 Of CGST Act 2017
You can... if it's furtherance of business.
Clause (a) to section 17 (5 ) , declares motor vehicles and  other conveyances  as blocked credit,  subject to certain exceptions. Accordingly no ITC is available in respect of motor vehicles.Restriction on ITC benefit in respect of motor vehicle  DOES NOT  get extended to repairs, insurance etc. for motor vehicles and as such there is no bar in availability of ITC on these services. 
Better if you not take ITC
No not allowed
No you cannot take ITC for the same

it is better to take credit of insurance premium paid and on maintanance of  car. However, as per law if ITC is paid for making or acquiring immovable property then no ITC is allowed. For car used for business ppurposes like you said is allowed.

Hi All - thanks for your inputs. But as you all can read, there are mix opinions.
