The case is - We are in Tourism industry and arrange customized package for various customers and corporate customers.

Quick Summary
A tourism company is seeking clarification on whether they can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) for GST paid to a live band hired for performances at a hotel. While GST on food and accommodation is generally not eligible for ITC, the specific service here is from live band artists who have charged GST on their bill. The query is whether this particular service qualifies for ITC.

I think no gst is applicable on food & accommodation service
Yes, Sir. but the question is different. we have taken LIVE BAND PERFORMANCE SERVICE OF ARTISTS. They charged GST on bill so can we claim that??
