Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Input Tax Credit (ITC) is eligible for materials used in factory construction. Generally, if construction costs are capitalised, ITC cannot be claimed as per Section 17(5) of the CGST Act. However, if expenses are shown in the Profit and Loss account, ITC might be claimable, though new constructions typically cannot be booked as revenue expenses in P&L.

@ AMBER if your client is capitalising the expenses incurred in the construction, then he/she cannot claim ITC on such goods rather if they are showing those expenses in the p&l then they can claim ITC
You yourself had mentioned the correct section , which states that ITC on same is block (If capitalised)
@ Mr AMBER.,

The said section (17(5) of CGST Act) blocked the ITC. Also You have the details correctly. No more clarification for the ITC will not be avail.

@ Mr Ranga Raj.,
New construction can't be book as RM into PandL...
Thank you for your valuable clarification
Is it a new construction? if so Mr.Raja is correct
