A taxpayer shall be eligible to claim input tax credit on the Diwali gifts purchased by it and distributed to persons related to business but there shall be no ITC with respect to the sweets and other eatables purchased for distribution to workers/employees or any gifts distributed to the employees by the employer.

It is not a supply as per para 2 schedule 1 upto Rs. 50000 by employer to employee.so company will not charge gst.
But company purchased goods from sweet shop at that company had paid gst it will not be eligible to claim gst as per section 17 of cgst act.

We can Claim the ITC of the gifts purchased except sweets and other beverages as per sec 17 of CGST Act, We dont need to pay GST if the value of Gift given by Employer to its Employee does not excees Rs 50000,
because as per Schedule1 it is not considered as Supply.
