Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the eligibility for claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) on Goods and Services Tax (GST) paid under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) for remuneration given to company directors. While GST is generally not applicable to salaries paid to employees, if remuneration is treated as professional fees and RCM has been paid, ITC can be claimed. The consensus is that directors' remuneration, excluding salaries, sitting fees, and other charges for all directors, falls under RCM, and ITC is permissible.

Yes, why not.
Generally no one charges gst on employee.

If the remuneration has been paid as salary then there won't be any GST. 

If paid as professional fees and RCM have bene paid then you can take ITC of the tax paid under RCM. 

In my view, Any remuneration paid to the Directors - other than whole time Directors and Sitting fees or any other charges paid to all the Directors has to be chargeable under Reverse Charge, and not restriction on ITC.

So professional fees are not applicable on gst.
