Some capital goods are not allowed to take input tax credit
As per 17(5)(d) ITC is blocked on goods or services or both received by a taxable person for construction of an immovable property (other than plant or machinery) on his own account including when such goods or services or both are used in the course or furtherance of business.

No ITC available over construction of building/hall.

There is one similar case of Orissa where it was argued that the building was constructed to give for rent.

I think you can similarly argue and avail ITC. however as per act section 17 restricts the credit.
sir are you referring to Safari retreats Pvt LTD case ?
yes... that's the case. Thanks for quoting it I missed. Its a direct take on article 14 of constitution itself.
So the relief can be taken by the assessee's who hail from same land. can orrissa asseessee's rely on the judgement and take benefit of the provision or should wait for amendment of act.
High court will have jurisdiction in that state. In my opinion, the assessee's in that state can rely and take benefit if the case in hand is in similar lines.

However, the same is interpretational issue better to wait for clarity from GST committee and then take action.

WE H AVE A MARRGE HALLS ON WHICH ANNUANLLY WE ARE BOUND TO SPENT FOR REPARIS AND RENOVATIONS. THE INCOME EARNED IS DIRECTLY REALTED TO THE  EXPENDITURE INCURRED AND THUS WE SHOULD BE ALLOWED INPUT TAX CREDIT ON SUCH. 

I SHOULD BE IMMATERIAL IF WE DEBIT REPAIRS OR DEBIT CAPITAL ASSETS ACCOUNT SO FAR AS THE INCOME ND EXPENDITURE ARE RELATED WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THE CLAIM

KINDLY CLARIFY IF ANY ONE HAS COME ACROSS THE SAME
