Same is mandatory by the circular, so PO cannot deny the provisional refund on in Zero rate supply cases.

- Date of refund to be considered on the date of credit of bank account
9. GST Refund in Inverted Tax Structure :-
- Inverted duty structure is not defined in the Act or Rules or circular.
- Para 3 Circular 135/2020 – if inverted duty structure arise due to change in the rate of tax on goods after the purchase, then refund is not allowed in that case.
- Para 54( a) Circulr 125– Where there are multiple inputs attracting different rates of tax, the term“Net ITC‟ covers the ITC availed on all inputs in the relevant period, irrespective of their rate of tax. It means a person having rate of 5% and 12% with output rate 12%,
- Maximum refund formula applies in the inverted duty structure, section 54(3) of the CGST Act read with rule 89(5) of the CGST Rules
Maximum refund = Turnover of inverted duty structure * Net ITC/Adjusted total turnover – tax payable on such inverted rate of supply
Section 54(3)(ii) – where the credit has accumulated on account of rate of tax on inputs being higher than the rate of tax on output supplies (other than nil rated or fully exempt supplies), except supplies of goods or services or both as may be notified by the Government on the recommendations of the Council
Section 2 (59)- inputs as any goods other than capital goods used or intended to be used by a supplier in the course or furtherance of business
Thus, inputs do not include services or capital goods
Para 53 – Therefore, the intent of the law is not to allow refund of tax paid on input services or capital goods as part of refund of unutilized input tax credit. It is clarified that both the law and the related rules clearly prevent the refund of tax paid on input services and capital goods as part of refund of input tax credit accumulated on account of inverted tax structure.
Cases whereas the output is service and RP has taken input of Goods or services or both, then RP is entitled for the refund in that case.
There is nowhere mentioned to provide the calculation of the stock details in the case of refund.

10. Refund of TDS/TCS deposited in excess
- where taxes so deducted or collected is deposited under the wrong head (e.g. an amount deducted as Central tax is deposited as Integrated tax/State tax), such excess balance may be claimed by the tax deduction or the collector as the excess balance in electronic cash ledger. In this case, the common portal would debit the amount so claimed as refund. However, in case where tax deducted or collected in excess is also paid while discharging the liability in FORM GSTR 7 or FORM GSTR 8, as the case may be, and the said amount has been credited to the electronic cash ledger of the deductee, the deductee can adjust the same while discharging his output liability or he can claim refund of the same under the category “refund of excess balance in the electronic cash ledger”.
11. Disbursal of refund/all the heading refund to be done by one PO- Para 27, Circular 125 :-
- Refund of IGST/CGST/SGST made easy by this circular on consolidated basis by the respective assign PO either central officer or state officer meaning if a central officer assigned for the refund of a customer which includes IGST,CGST,SGST, then if the application is proper, then he shall issue both sanction order RFD- 04/06 and payment order RFD-05 under all the tax heads i.e. IGST/CGST/SGST. They cannot ask RP to make separate refund advice from the SGST from the state officer.
12. Payment in the wrong head/excess paid and thereafter claimed as GST refund
- Earlier RP used to excess debit from the electronic credit ledger with intentilly and claim the amount as refund, so they was able to get refund electronic credit ledger into cash refund due to process issue, this was came to notice of department, then department inserted new rule 86(4A) and 92 (1A) via notification no 16/2020 dated 23-03-2020 with restriction on the same, with refund in the same account only on which same was paid either cash ledger or credit ledger as the case may be.
Rule 86(4A) Where a registered person has claimed refund of any amount paid as tax wrongly paid or paid in excess for which debit has been made from the electronic credit ledger, the said amount, if found admissible, shall be re-credited to the electronic credit ledger by the proper officer by an order made in FORM GST PMT-03.
92(1A)- Where, upon examination of the application of refund of any amount paid as tax other than the refund of tax paid on zero-rated supplies or deemed export, the proper officer is satisfied that a refund under sub-section (5) of section 54 of the Act is due and payable to the applicant, he shall make an order in FORM RFD-06 sanctioning the amount of refund to be paid, in cash, proportionate to the amount debited in cash against the total amount paid for discharging tax liability for the relevant period, mentioning therein the amount adjusted against any outstanding demand under the Act or under any existing law and the balance amount refundable and for the remaining amount which has been debited from the electronic credit ledger for making payment of such tax, the proper officer shall issue FORM GST PMT-03 re-crediting the said amount as Input Tax Credit in electronic credit ledger.]
Refund can be claimed only upto the closing balance of the relevant tax period not more than, the reason for the same is RP need to debit the credit ledger at the time of application for the refund and a person cannot debit the amount more than available balance in general terms also.
13. Cases where circular beyond the law :-
Any refund claim for a tax period may be filed only after furnishing all the returns in FORM GSTR-1 and FORM GSTR-3B which were due to be furnished on or before the date on which the refund application is being filed. (Para 6)
Whereas Section 54(10) states that refund to be withhold if return is not filled and adjust the tax or interest or penalty due to the person, withhold means department has to process the refund claim, approve the same but not disbursed due to non filling of return, hence in this case also, circular is against the law.
In the case of goods export out of india with IGST Paid, Rule 96(1)(b) states that application in the shiping bill for the refund deemed to have been filled when RP has furnished return in GSTR3 or GSTR 3B as the case may be, whereas Para 6 ask that GSTR 1 is also mandatory, it is agisnt the law.
14. Whether refund restriction for the capital goods is as per the law :-
Section 54(3) a registered person may claim refund of any unutilised input tax credit at the end of any tax period:
(59) “input” means any goods other than capital goods used or intended to be used by a supplier in the course or furtherance of business;
Section 2 (62) “input tax” in relation to a registered person, means the central tax, State tax, integrated tax or Union territory tax charged on any supply of goods or services or both made to him and includes—
(a) the integrated goods and services tax charged on import of goods;
(b) the tax payable under the provisions of sub-sections (3) and (4) of section 9;
but does not include the tax paid under the composition levy
Section 2(63) “input tax credit” means the credit of input tax;
Section 2(52) “goods” means every kind of movable property other than money and securities but includes actionable claim, growing crops, grass and things attached to or forming part of the land which are agreed to be severed before supply or under a contract of supply;
In my opinion :-
- CGST Act permit ITC on the goods or services, goods include capital goods.
- Restricing ITC on capital goods or services on the basis of a definition inserted in a formula stated in Rule 89(5) is beyond the act.
- The provisions of Section 54(3) of the CGST Act entitles the Petitioner to claim refund of unutilized ITC which is defined under Section 2(63) and the input tax is defined under Section 2(62) of the CGST Act to mean the tax charged on any supply of goods or services or both made to him.
- Rule 89(5) of the CGST Rules gives the formula for computation of refund of ITC and explanation (a) therein excludes ITC on input services from the definition of Net ITC, though it is shown under the turnover of inverted rated supply of goods and services therein.
- Ideally, capital goods and input services must also be included so that the cost burden can be reduced for the consumers & the industry can benefit
As per my knowledge or opinion, “input” word used in the Section 54(2)(ii) meaning whereas input rate is higher in the case of output supply, there is not restriction placed by the act with intention to block the refund of Capital goods but now used or interpreated by the department.

Export of goods or services can be made without payment of Integrated tax under the provisions of rule 96A of the CGST Rules. Under the said provisions, an exporter is required to furnish a bond or Letter of Undertaking (LUT) to the jurisdictional Commissioner before effecting zero rated supplies.
procedure for filing of LUT has been specified vide Circular No. 8/8/2017 –GST dated 4.10.2017.
Para 44 – if exporter do export before the making LUT, LUT filled after export and claim refund for the GST paid, then if exporter able to established that exports in terms of the relevant provisions have been made. The delay in furnishing of LUT in such cases may be condoned and the facility for export under LUT may be allowed on ex post facto basis taking into account the facts and circumstances of each case.
Rule 96A (1) of the CGST Rules provides that any registered person may export goods or services without payment of Integrated tax after furnishing a LUT / bond and that he would be liable to pay the tax due along with the interest as applicable within a period of fifteen days after the expiry of three months and The time period in case of services is fifteen days after the expiry of one year or or such further period as may be allowed by the Commissioner from the date of issue of the invoice for export, if the goods or services are not exported out of India, if exporter cannt able to export the goods within above timeline, then department is not allowed to insisit taxpayers for the payment of IGST – Refer Para 45
requirement of self declaration for the prosecuted is already satisfied in case of exports under LUT as if a person gives this declaration, then only he can export with LUT otherwise required to export under bond, so asking for self–declaration with every refund claim where the exports have been made under LUT is not required – Refer 46
Refund is allowed with head to head only in the case of other than Zero Rated supply Rule 86(4A) – Para 4 Notification NO 135/2020

2. Refund of tax paid on intra-State supply which is subsequently held to be interState supply and vice versa;
3. Refund on account of assessment/provisional assessment/appeal/any other order;
4. Refund on account of “any other” ground or reason.
In the above 4 cases, earlier refund was paid in the cash mode even paid by the RP with ITC mode, but government restrict the same, now same is allowed with payment vide only i.e. if a persn made payment of excess tax from the accumulated ITC, then refund will be made to him by credit in the ITC not in cash, for the control of encashment of credit balances,
HSN Code is mandatory required in the case of refund :- Para 6 – 135/2020 – New Requirement to mention HSN/SAC in Annexure ‘B’ in the statement of invoices for the differentiates the capital goods/input/input services
