Input tax credit on promotional gifts may be disallowed unless cost is included in consideration for the supply.
Eligibility for input tax credit on promotional scheme items depends on treatment of the supply: if promotional goods are treated as free samples or gifts provided without consideration, ITC must be disallowed or reversed; if the cost of the promotional item is included in the price or the item is bundled with the main supply (e.g., buy one get one) and thus forms part of consideration and invoicing, ITC may be available.
