Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the eligibility of Input Tax Credit (ITC) for construction work within the auto components manufacturing industry. While Section 17(5) of the CGST Act generally blocks ITC on construction, there are nuances. If construction is specifically for plant and machinery and capitalised accordingly, ITC may be eligible. For general construction, credit is typically ineligible, but ITC on separately capitalised items like furniture, fittings, or equipment may be claimable if properly documented.

As per section 17(5) of the CGST act 2017 , ITC on Construction work is blocked credit not available , So you have to reverse Input Tax credit with interest applicable .

Thanks for guidance...Mr.Prasad Nilugal

Well come

Cannot directly say ineligible. If I capitalise construction activity which is specifically designed and implemented for Plant & Machinery it gets capitalised to P&M. Such construction is clearly eligible. 

Where it is general construction above comments hold good. Although, to the extent of pure construction credit is ineligible, any furniture and fittings, equipments, P&M which are capitalised separately - credit can be claimed if vendor agreements, accounting is clear. 

Thanks for your guidance... Mr.Akshay
