Blocked construction input tax credit persists despite taxable rental income, subject only to proven plant or structural-support exceptions.
Notes
GST
Input tax credit for construction of immovable property used in a rental business remains subject to statutory blocked-credit restrictions. Although renting is a taxable supply of services, the general business-use entitlement does not override the bar on works contract services for construction or goods and services used to construct immovable property on the taxpayer's own account. Taxable rental income alone neither meets the exception for further supply of works contract services nor establishes that a building is qualifying plant. Eligibility may depend on a fact-specific functionality analysis or proof that expenditure relates to a foundation or structural support integral to identified plant and machinery. Claims must also satisfy timing, documentary, disclosure and utilisation requirements; inadequate statutory disclosure may trigger fraud or suppression-based demand, interest and penalty exposure.
