In my opinion even if it is for business purpose you do not seem to fulfill conditions for availing ITC on motor vehicle under section 17(5) as you are not dealing in music instruments i.e. trading so from that point of view transportation of goods will not come to your rescue.

Under the GST regime, the ability to claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on motor vehicles is subject to specific conditions and restrictions. Here's a detailed explanation based on your scenario:
### **ITC on Motor Vehicles:**
#### **General Rule:**
- **Section 17(5) of the CGST Act** lays down the restrictions on ITC for motor vehicles. It generally disallows ITC for motor vehicles unless used in specific scenarios.
#### **Conditions for Availing ITC:**
1. **Motor Vehicles for Transport of Goods:**
- ITC is allowed on motor vehicles used for transportation of goods. This includes trucks, lorries, and similar vehicles used for transporting goods from one place to another.
- **Section 17(5)(a)(B)**: ITC is available for motor vehicles used for transporting goods or passengers if the business involves supply of such vehicles (e.g., dealers of motor vehicles, taxi services).
2. **Motor Vehicles Used for Business Purposes:**
- ITC is allowed on vehicles used for the business of transportation of goods or passengers, such as those used in the supply chain or for carrying goods to clients.
#### **In Your Case:**
- **Nature of Business:** Event Management
- **Vehicle Purchase:** Eicher Motor used to transport music instruments to event locations.
#### **Eligibility for ITC:**
1. **Purpose of Vehicle Use:**
- Since your firm uses the Eicher motor vehicle to transport music instruments (which are business assets) to event locations, the vehicle is used for a business purpose.
- ITC on motor vehicles used for transportation of goods is eligible, and since your event management business involves transporting equipment, this should fall under the eligible category.
2. **Restrictions and Exceptions:**
- **Section 17(5)(a)(B)** specifies that ITC can be claimed on motor vehicles used for business purposes related to transportation. Ensure that the vehicle is used exclusively for business operations.
- **Condition:** Ensure that the vehicle is used primarily for business and not for personal purposes, and maintain proper documentation to support the ITC claim.
#### **Practical Steps:**
1. **Documentation:**
- Maintain all invoices related to the purchase of the motor vehicle.
- Ensure the vehicle is used exclusively for business operations.
- Keep records of how the vehicle is utilized for transporting goods and services related to your business.
2. **Claiming ITC:**
- Ensure that the GST paid on the purchase of the vehicle is accurately reflected in your GST returns.
- Claim ITC in the GST return for the period in which the vehicle was purchased.
### **Conclusion:**
You can claim ITC on the purchase of the Eicher motor vehicle used for transporting music instruments to event locations, as it is used for your event management business. Ensure compliance with the conditions specified under **Section 17(5)** and maintain proper documentation to support your ITC claim.
