GSTOS · COPILOT v4.2section-grounded · 82ms
Can ITC on construction of a mall be claimed?

◆ COPILOT · grounded

Short answer: often yes, post-Safari Retreats.

  • §17(5)(d) blocks ITC on goods/services used for "construction of immovable property on own account".
  • The Supreme Court (Oct 2024) in Safari Retreats introduced a functional utility test: if the building qualifies as "plant", the block does not apply.
  • Where the mall is let out and letting is the output supply, ITC on construction costs may be admissible.
