14 June 2018 As per Section 16 of CGST Act, inward supply of inputs, input services, capital goods procured for furtherance of business or intended to be used in the business are eligible for input tax credit unless the same is not covered under blocked credits specified under Section 17(5).
In the present case, the inward supply of construction services are covered under blocked credits. Therefore, not eligible for input tax credit.
