Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether input tax credit (ITC) for painting and electrical fittings is blocked under Section 17(5)(d) for a manufacturing company that also rents out commercial buildings. The consensus is that if these expenses are capitalised, ITC is not eligible. However, if they are treated as revenue expenditure and booked in the P&L account, ITC can be claimed.
If it is Capitalized, they you are not eligible to claim ITC on Painting and Electrical fittings. However if it is booked as a Revenue Expenditure in the P&L A/c, then you can claim ITC.
