    Dear Sirs;

    This is with reference to LTC CASH scheme announce by Govt of India In which I have Purchased a Scooty. When I submit the claim to my department they are insisting for GST invoice for the Insurance Policy which is not given by the dealer.

    As all the details which is mandatory as per GST invoicing rule like GST Number; Applicable GST; Place Of Suply etc are available on Insurance Policy itself.

    In view of the above kindly clarify that can Insurance Policy be consider as invoice ?
