(ii) Tax on procurements made by a registered person from an unregistered supplier is levied only in case of notified goods and services. Therefore, since no GST is paid on such raw material purchased, there does not arise any question of ITC on such raw material. (iii) IGST paid on imported goods qualifies as input tax. Therefore, credit of IGST paid on imported raw materials used in the course or furtherance of business is available. ITC on consumables, being inputs used in the course or furtherance of business, is available. However, since levy of GST on high speed diesel has been deferred till a date to be notified by Government, there cannot be any ITC of the same. ITC on monthly rent is available as the said service is used in the course or furtherance of business. Services by employees to employer in the course of or in relation to his employment is not a supply in terms of section 7 read with Schedule III to the CGST Act, 2017. Therefore, since no GST is paid on such services, there cannot be any ITC on such services. ITC on life insurance service is available if the same is obligatory for an employer to provide to its employees under any law for the time being in force. Export of goods is a zero rated supply. A zero rated supply under LUT/bond is made without payment of IGST. Since export of goods is a zero rated supply, there will be no apportionment of ITC and full credit will be available.
