Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether input tax credit (ITC) can be claimed on cab hire charges for employee transportation. Generally, ITC on such services is blocked under Section 17(5)(b)(i) of the CGST Act 2017, meaning it cannot be claimed. Exceptions exist if the vehicle capacity exceeds 13 persons, if your business involves similar services, or if providing the transport is a statutory obligation. Corporate rides with services like Ola and Uber also fall under this restriction.

Such kind of ITC can only be claimed if vehicle sitting capacity is more than 13 persons or if your company is doing same kind of business.

other opinions are welcome.
No ITC can not be availed for cab hire charges
No you can not claim Input Tax credit , it's Blocked credit under section 17(5)(b)(I) of the CGST act 2017 .
Cab service blocked credit.
Input can't be claimed.
Hope this gets nullified.
In the case can't we claim on ola and uber corporate rides?

No, you cannot claim ITC against Uber Ola rides. 

Hi Kumar

ITC cannot be availed as per Clause (iv) of Section 17(5). However, the ITC can be availed if said services are provided under any statutory obligation.
