ITC on employee insurance

Can a employer take ITC on Employee Compensation Insurance policy ?
Replies (2)
Quick Summary
Generally, employers cannot claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on employee compensation insurance as it's often considered a blocked credit. However, there's an exception: if the insurance is made mandatory for employers by law, then ITC can be availed. This hinges on government notification classifying such insurance as an obligatory service.

Can be claimed as itc only when the Government notifies it as services which are obligatory for an employer to provide to its employees under law.

Generally, NO = Blocked credits Sec 17(5) 

BUT 

if such insurance is obligatory for the employer under any act for the time being in force then ITC CAN BE AVAILED .
