Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules regarding Input Tax Credit (ITC) on fixed assets under GST. You cannot claim both depreciation on the tax component of capital goods and ITC on that same tax component. If you claim ITC on fixed assets, depreciation is available only on the cost excluding the GST amount. Conversely, if you don't claim ITC, depreciation can be claimed on the full invoice value, including GST.
Yes, as per section 16(3) of the CGST act , where the registered person has claimed depreciation on the tax components of the cost of capital goods and plants and machinery under the provisions of the Income tax act 1961 , then the input tax credit on the said tax components shall not be allowed .
If you take ITC on fixed assets then you cannot claim depreciation on tax amount. Depreciation will still be available on amount of fixed asset excluding GST amount
If You take ITC on fixed assets, than Depreciation is available on amount excluding GST. If you don't take ITC, than Depreciation is available on full invoice value(i.e incl. GST)
If You take ITC on fixed assets, than Depreciation is available on amount excluding GST. If you don't take ITC, than Depreciation is available on full invoice value(i.e incl. GST)
So, Depreciation is available on both case, but amount on which depreciation available will change
