Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether GST input credit can be claimed on hospitalisation charges for employees who tested positive for COVID-19. The consensus is that such input tax credit is generally not claimable. This is due to Section 17(5) of the GST law, which specifically blocks input tax credit for healthcare services, unless legally mandated.

Blocked credit u/s 17(5) clause b.

Specifically mentions healthcare services ITC cannot be taken.

No ITC cannot be claimed in this case
Agree with the above. No ITC
ITC can be claimed only in case if it is being obligatory by Law else no ITC available.

As per section 17(5) ITC ( input tax credit )cannot be claimed in such cases
