Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether GST input credit is allowed on mediclaim insurance policies purchased by individuals. The consensus is that it is not allowed. This is because, according to Section 17(5)(g) of the CGST Act 2017, input tax credit is blocked for goods or services used for personal consumption, and health insurance falls under this category.
As per the Provision of Section 17(5) clause (g) of the CGST Act 2017, ITC is specifically BLOCKED incase of "Goods or Services or both used for PERSONAL CONSUMPTION."
Hence ITC of GST paid on Mediclaim Insurance is not allowed.
