Quick Summary

If you've purchased materials like sand, bricks, and cement for constructing a building for your business, you generally cannot claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) under GST. This is because construction of immovable property is usually considered a blocked credit. The main exception is if your business is specifically involved in construction, or if the materials are for plant and machinery and not capitalised.

No, construction of immovable property other than plant and machinery is under block credit. Credit only allowed to person engaged in construction business.

ITC on construction cannot be claimed unless it is for plant and machinery or is not capitalized i.e. added to the cost of the asset, you can claim depreciation only.
