No, the GST paid on electricity bills is not eligible for input tax credit

I guess there should not be any restriction on claiming ITC because same is not mentioned in Sec 17(5) of CGST Act

Who is charging gst on electricity bill?
Electricity supply is excluded from GST , hence no GST will be charged on electricity bill and no question of credit arises.
Yes ITC is available.
