Case Law Details
In re RIICO, Tilak Marg (GST AAAR Rajasthan)
Input Tax Credit is not only restricted to the goods and services used for construction of immovable property (whether capitalized or not) but also restricted for those goods and services which are used for re-construction, renovation, additions or alterations or repairs, to the extent of capitalization, to the said immovable property. It is not the other way round that the Input Tax Credit is available to all the goods and services used for construction of immovable property which is not capitalized in the books of accounts. It is not the case of the appellant that said works contract is related to repair, reconstruction, renovation, etc.
We therefore observe that the appellant’s undertaking of development work of the land to be leased out to various industrial/ non-industrial users, is construction of an immovable property and any goods and services or both / works contract, used for construction of an Immovable property shall attract the provisions of clauses (c) and (d) under sub-section (5) of Section 17 of the CGST Act, 2017 which specifically deny such input tax credit.
The appellant is engaged in development and leasing of the developed land to various industrial/non-industrial users and paid GST on none industrial plot. It was held that Appellant cannot claim the ITC of input services procured for construction of immovable property (whether capitalized or not)
