Gst itc on travel and hotel expenses

Sirs,

 

I need your Advice on the following :

1) A company is registered in State A (say Maharashtra).

2) Its Employee goes on a tour to State B (Say Gujarat). Here he pays for his Hotel stay and also pays local CGST and SGST. Can company can get ITC of this GST as the expenses was for furthering of the business.

3) Its Employee goes on a tour to same State A (Say Maharshtra). Here he pays for his Hotel stay and also pays local CGST and SGST. Can company can get ITC of this GST as the expenses was for furthering of the business.

No ITC available on travel and hotel expenses
No itc is available as per section 17(5)
2. Out of State:
You can claim ITC on Air tickets but on hotel stay & fooding No ITC is available , moreover Hotel will never charge IGST (As per section 12(3)IGST) .

3. Within State:
On hotel stay can claim ITC , but on fooding no ITC available


ITC block on Food (U/s 17(5))
Yes ITC available on traveling and accommodation Bills if you travel other state ITC igst with in the state cgst and sgst
if your company registered in Gujarat. then u will get GST towards Hotel staying bill

Thanks Guys,

I think this might be loop hole for the unscrupulous Hotel to under-report the GST collection as it can not be tallied with the service receiver from out of state. Am I wrong?
