Understanding GST Refunds
Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an indirect tax imposed on the supply of goods and services in India. GST refunds are a critical part of this system, allowing businesses to claim back the GST they paid on goods and services that they have exported or supplied to Special Economic Zones (SEZs). As a registered taxpayer, you may have paid more GST than the actual liability on inputs or input services used in the course of business. In such cases, you are entitled to claim a refund of the excess GST paid. However, the process of claiming a GST refund can be complex and time-consuming.
Eligibility Criteria for GST Refunds:
To be eligible for a GST refund, businesses must meet the following criteria:
- The exported goods or services must have been paid for in foreign currency, and the payment must have been received in India.
- The goods or services must have been exported within six months from the date of issue of the invoice.
- The goods or services must have been supplied to an SEZ developer or an SEZ unit.
- The GST paid on the input goods and services used in the manufacture or supply of the exported goods or services must have been claimed as an input tax credit.
- The refund application must be filed within two years from the date of the relevant export or supply.
Process of Claiming a GST Refund:
The process of claiming a GST refund varies depending on the type of refund being claimed. Here are the steps involved in claiming an IGST refund:
- File the export invoice and relevant shipping documents in the GST portal.
- File the relevant GST returns, including the GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B.
- Validate the export invoices and shipping bills using the ICEGATE portal.
- Submit the refund application form through the GST portal, along with the relevant supporting documents.
- Once the application is processed by the CBIC, the refund amount will be credited to the applicant’s bank account.
Here are the steps involved in claiming an SGST refund:
- File the refund application form through the respective state or union territory’s GST portal, along with the relevant supporting documents.
- Once the application is processed by the State GST authority, the refund amount will be credited to the applicant’s bank account.
