As per the Provision of Section 17(5) clause (a) of the CGST Act 2017, Input Tax Credit ( ITC ) on Motor Vehicles is specifically BLOCKED.

As far as the ITC on Staff Insurance is concerned, you can claim it only if it is obligatory for an employer to provide its employees under any Law for the time being in force. In General, Life Insurance or Health Insurance is Blocked by virtue of clause (b) of sub section (5) of Section 17 unless it is obligatory.
