GST ITC available on Taxable Works Contract Services for Construction of Hotel Building

Last updated: 12 June 2023
Quick Summary
The Tripura High Court has ruled that construction companies can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on taxable works contract services used for building a hotel. The court found that SR Constructions, the petitioner, was providing construction services to the hotel owner and not using the services for their own immovable property. Therefore, the restriction under Section 17(5)(c) of the CGST Act did not apply, and the demand for ITC by the Revenue Department was set aside.
