As per my knowledge,
No, Municipal Corporation cannot take refund of such ITC. As per Section 54 read with Rule 89 and Rule 96 of CGST Rules, you can take refund only in 2 cases. Either Zero rated supply or Inverted Tax Structure.
As services by Municipal corporation are exempt, it is not able to take ITC as per Section 17 of CGST Act. Amount of ITC will be expense for Municipal Corporation.
