Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications when capitalising movable and immovable assets. For immovable assets like buildings, Input Tax Credit (ITC) is generally blocked, meaning the GST cost is added to the asset's value. However, for movable assets such as machinery, full ITC is usually available. It's crucial not to claim depreciation on the GST component if you've claimed ITC, as this can lead to denial of the credit.

No there are no such losses.

ITC and capitalisation:
• Immovable assets (buildings, civil works, works contracts for construction): ITC is blocked (17(5)(c), (d)) if capitalised, except plant and machinery. So the GST becomes part of the asset's cost (a "loss" of ITC).
• Movable assets (machinery, computers, furniture used in business): ITC is available (capital goods) in full on receipt. Don't add GST to the cost if ITC is claimed. If you claim depreciation on the GST component, ITC is denied (Sec 16(3)).
