Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether restaurants paying 5% GST on sales can claim input tax credit (ITC) on packing materials. Generally, ITC is not available for restaurants operating under the 5% GST scheme, especially if they are considered 'standalone restaurants'. Eligibility for ITC depends on specific conditions, including GST registration type (regular, not composite) and the nature of the restaurant's operations.

No ITC can be taken
2.5% cgst
2.5% sgst

No cannot be taken for restaurant charging 5% 

My restaruant client paying the GST 5% on sales. and he is getting the packing material with 5%., can we take the gst Input. Thanking you. In most states, restaurants, like other enterprises with a revenue of more than ₹ 20 lakh, would be required to register for GST. If the yearly aggregate revenue of a restaurant in a  2048 cupcakes special category state exceeds ₹10 lakhs, the restaurant must register for GST GST on Food and Restaurants. GST on food items in India can be 5%, 12%, or 18% based on factors such as the establishment type and location of restaurants or food service providers among others. Goods and services tax has replaced the VAT and Service tax regime on food services
