Quick Summary
This discussion explores the implications of using a company GST number for personal purchases, like hair trimmers and dryers, on Flipkart. While a discount may be offered, using your GSTIN for personal items means you cannot claim Input Tax Credit (ITC). These expenses must be accounted for but cannot be claimed as business expenses for income tax or GST purposes, and any claimed ITC would need to be reversed.

If you use your company's GSTIN you will have to show it in your books of accounts. ITC will not be available 

Ok sir thanks
You may quote your company's gstin and take itc.

ITC is not available for goods used for personal purpose

Such transactions (being personal in nature) even if accounted in books cannot be claimed as deduction from income tax. Further, ITC cannot be claimed and same needs to be reversed while filing GST returns.

Ok thanks sir
Sometimes personal expense can also be an expense for business purpose

@ veerendar singh

This is the first time I am hearing something like this 😂😂

Yeah it is possible.
lot of people read statutes narrowly.

one must pay great heed to understand the nature of business, relationship and intention for commercial transaction.

Yes but personal expenses can never be business expenses

Ok sir
It can be business expenses for being incurred with commercial rationalisation

A trimmer purchased for personal use has no commercial rationalisation.

If trimmer purchased by barber or to sell it further then it has business purpose.

So if it is of personal nature then it cannot be for business purpose in any case.

Here the querist has specifically mentioned that it is for personal purpose. If so, on what basis can we treat this personal expense as business expense?
