Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the eligibility for claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) on laptops used for business purposes under the CGST Act 2017. Generally, ITC can be claimed if the laptop is used in the course of business and meets specific conditions. However, ITC is blocked if the laptop is used for personal purposes or if it's a motor vehicle like a scooter, which is specifically excluded under Section 17(5) of the Act.

If it is being used in the course of business, then YES your client can claim Input Tax Credit ( ITC ) on laptop provided that all the Four conditions as laid down under Section 16(2) of the CGST Act 2017 is satisfied.

But if used for Personal Purpose, then the ITC is BLOCKED U/s 17(5) of the CGST Act 2017.
Thanks sir
Your most Welcome Sir...
If I have purchased scooter for business purpose then I claim input itc

Scooter is covered under the definition of motor vehicle hence cannot claim itc as it is specifically blocked under sec 17 of cgst act.
