The Company constructed a warehouse and let it out. The Company paid the GST on such outward supply. The Company sought an advance ruling from WBAAR that whether the company is entitled to claim ITC on inward supplies received for construction of such warehouse. The Hon’ble WBAAR held that the restriction given under Section 17(5)(d) of CGST Act in respect of ITC on goods or services used for construction of warehouse is applicable in the instant case, i.e., the Company is not eligible for ITC with respect to inward supplies to the extent such expenditure is capitalised. However, where construction expenses are not capitalized in books, the claim of ITC is admissible.
