Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the relationship between a principal and a job worker under GST law. They are considered distinct persons, not related. The principal can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on inputs sent to the job worker, provided the tax invoice is in the job worker's name.

Section 19 of the CGST Act, 2017 provides that the principal (a person supplying taxable goods to the job worker) shall be entitled to take the credit of input tax paid on inputs sent to the job- worker for the job work.

Principle and Job workers are Distinct Persons.  If the Tax Invoice is in the name of Job Worker, he can  take input credit.
