Dear Members,
This is in continuation of our circular dated 30/11/2017 regarding IGST/Un-utilised ITC Refunds informing you about Government press release advising exporters to file Table 6A and GSTR 3B for processing of IGST Refund and RFD01A for refund of the unutilized Input Tax Credit.
Prior to the government advisory, the council has also sent refund reports received from JNCH, ACC Sahar cargo related to July 2017 exports, so that exporters can do the needful rectification wherever necessary. We hope the members have done to needful wherever necessary.
For the sake of convenience, we would like to re-summarise the process as follows:
-
Steps to file refund of IGST paid on Export of Goods

The shipping bills filed by exporters will be deemed to be application and the refund amount is processed and paid to the taxpayer if the following conditions are satisfied:
GSTR-3B for the relevant tax period (for which claim is being considered) should have been filed.
Form GSTR-1 for the month of July or Table 6A of GSTR-1 for subsequent months must be filed.
Shipping bill date and number should be mentioned in Table 6A.
IGST amount to be paid should be shown under Table 3.1 (b) of GSTR-3B, which must be equal or greater than IGST amount shown to be paid under Table 6A.
Exporters may, take due precaution to ensure that no errors creep in while filing Table 6A of GSTR 1 of August 2017 and onwards. In case of wrong entries made in July, Table 9 of GSTR 1 of August month would allow amendments to GSTR 1 of July 2017.
