(this point is still create confusing)
E. Where a capital good which was earlier used or intended to be exclusively used for:
- Non- business purpose
- Effecting exempt supplies
Later to be used commonly for:
- Business and non-business purpose
- Effecting taxable and exempt supplies
Input tax to be credited to electronic credit ledger would be:
= Input Tax – 5% of Input tax for every quarter or part thereof
Let us understand the situation through an example
Mr. Avinash bought a Capital Good intended to be used for effecting exempt supplies only, for Rs 1,00,000/- paying Rs 18,000 as input tax on 01/04/2017 and now on 15/11/2018 he wishes to use the capital good commonly for taxable and exempt supplies.
Now the eligible common input tax credit will be calculated as follows
= Input Tax – 5% of Input tax for every quarter or part thereof
= 18,000 – 5% of 18000 * 3 quarters
= 18,000 – 2,700
= 15,300
Now Mr. Avinash will credit Rs 15,300 to Electronic Credit ledger and follow the steps shown in point D to calculate the input tax attributable to exempt supplies out of common credit
