Yes ,... Agree with Raja PM ,
if its rented premises , such expense will be book as Repair & Maintenance & You will get the ITC
But if it is owned, then such expense has to capitalize to Building Account & cannot claim ITC as per section 17(5)

a) It is our own premises

b) It is New plant

Raja P M sir, Please guide to my query For STP plant ITC.

Dear Narayana.S

In my view, you should be able to avail input tax credit. Because of the reason that it should be constructed in specific manner and many pumps and lot of other machinery is being put in such construction.
