Hi Everyone,

We are not related to jewelry business, We have given gold coins to our employees as Diwali gift, are we allowed to take credit of ITC of that gold purchase?

Thank you.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Input Tax Credit (ITC) can be claimed on gold coins purchased and given to employees as Diwali gifts. The consensus is that ITC is not permissible on such items when they are treated as free distributions. This is due to Section 17(5) of the GST law, which blocks credit for gifts provided without consideration.

No ITC not allowed on free distribution of gifts as per section 17(5) blocked credit
No ITC not available.
