Itc on works contract service

As per section 17(5) of the CGST act, ITC on work contracts is not available unless it is used for further supply of work contracts. In this case i am understanding that you will be making sale of an completed building structure. Therefore from this point of view you cannot claim ITC on the taxes paid.

But if you are an contractor and have sub-contracted some work of the work contract service and have paid gst, then you can claim the input.


What is OC and what is its significance?

ITC for works contract can be availed only by one who is in the same line of business and is using such services received for further supply of works contract service

Sir we take only govt contracts on roads, side culverts, small bridges, govt official buildings, etc.. now my doubt whether we are eligible ITC for taxes paid on material purchases (like cement, steel, bricks, bitumen, boulders,etc..)
