Quick Summary
This discussion explores the advisability of claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) on mandatory group medical insurance for companies. The general consensus is that ITC can be claimed if the insurance is legally obligatory for the employer to provide. If the insurance is not mandated by law, any claimed ITC will need to be reversed. Section 17(5)(b) of the GST law clarifies that ITC is available on insurance if it's an employer's legal obligation.
