Recently their is change in definition of Input. i.e. Input includes capital goods having value less than ₹ 10000/- Per Pc. Here wording is Per Piece. But some of capital goods we are getting on per Kgs. basis.
For example Refractory material falling under chapter 38160000 is getting to us on per Kg. basis. We have one purchase invoice, total Value of refractory material including Tax is ₹ 761940/- and total Kg. is 8000. Please confirm where we can take credit of Refractory material. I.e. In Input or Capital goods.
