Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether businesses registered for GST on commercial property rentals can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on GST charged on bank loan processing fees. While loans are often linked to immovable property, which has specific ITC restrictions, the consensus is that if the loan is essential for your business operations and the rental income is taxable, you can likely claim the ITC. It's advised to check if the processing charges are capitalised to the property, as this may affect eligibility.

Yes you can take the itc
It is not provided anywhere in the Act whether you can take ITC on Bank loan processing charges.
But the act specifies some case under Section 17(5) which are ineligible for ITC and Interest on bank loan processing charges is not given there.

Therefore you can take the ITC on the same, as taking loan for the purchase of Commercial property is essential to carry out your business.

Thanks
Thanks for your reply,
my thought behind this question is the loan is taken for immovable property and section 17(5) blocked credit for any goods or services related to immovable property.
But the immovable property is going to let out (rented) & rental Income from commercial property is taxable in GST.

So in term of Section 16 the ITC can be claimed as it is in course of business.


Note : For repair expenses on Account of Immovable property the ITC is available , So if the Loan processing charges is not capitalise to Immovable Property the ITC is available.
