16 May 2019 Yes you can avail the ITC. Sec. 17(5) of CGST Act, 2017, does not restricts the ITC on air conditioner and refrigerator purchased. Only works contract services are restricted with certain conditions w.r.t to plant machinery.

In your case, as it is pure purchase, you can avail ITC on the same.

16 May 2019 As per GST, anything which you capitalize in your books will be treated as capital assets as per GST. If you are not having any exempted supplies, then 100% credit is allowed on such capital assets.

16 May 2019 But rule 43 state that the capital asset should be used exclusively for furtherance supply in the scenario of capital assets such as Mobile Air conditioner also Refrigerater is used partly for personal uses....therefore during the assessment officer may object the ITC thereof upon exclusively for furtherance supply...

Your views pls.....
