Yes, you can claim input tax credit on food items purchased even if you are paying 5% GST on food service. As long as the food items are used in the business for providing taxable supplies, you are eligible to claim the credit. Ensure you have proper documentation and comply with GST regulations.

Sir, but i heard I heard " food service provided by a restaurant operating within a hotel with a room tarrif of Rs 7500 or less is 5% with no input tax". That's why im confused.
Yes , Correct do not claim input tax credit, for standalone Restaurant GST 5% with no input tax credit, please confirm with others also .
Agree with Prasad
