from which state you are asking this question? your question is also not clear.

he can not take ITC if he opts to pay at 5% i.e., compositon rate.

 

he can take ITC in case of non composition ie., he has to be pay tax at 14.5%

after setting off ITC.as the works contract turnover does not fall in any schedule.

in andhra pradesh, 90% of input eligible to be claimed for set off.

composition to be opted in a month time of receiving work order

AI Summary

Input tax credit restriction: contractors paying composition tax cannot claim ITC; non-composition taxpayers may claim set off subject to local eligibility. Election of the composition scheme for a works contract disqualifies the contractor from claiming input tax credit; contractors paying tax under the regular rate may claim ITC and set it off against liability, subject to state-specific eligibility limits for works contracts. The composition option must be exercised within the prescribed period following receipt of the work order.
