Disallowed ITC on inputs used for pipelines laid outside factory premises being not covered within plant and machinery


Quick Summary
The Maharashtra Authority for Advance Ruling (AAR) has ruled that Input Tax Credit (ITC) is not available for inputs used in constructing pipelines laid outside factory premises. The AAR determined that such pipelines do not qualify as 'plant and machinery' under the CGST Act. Consequently, the company involved in aviation fuel services cannot claim ITC on the goods and services used for the portion of the pipeline situated outside its premises.

Court :
AAR, Maharashtra

Brief :
