18 February 2021 Hello Everyone,

I have a proprietorship firm and have filed for GST refund/ITC on 5 Jan, 2021 for the last quarter of 2020 (Oct-Dec). The accumulated ITC was for GST paid on purchase of online advertising (Google and Facebook Ads) and as I provide services through "export of services without payment of GST" to foreign clients.

I was informed by a CA that I'm eligible for 100% refund for GST paid. Now my question is how long does it take for refund/ITC application to be processed and ITC to be credited to my savings bank account, that's already added on GST portal and was also selected during filing for ITC claim?

18 February 2021 Can I send an email? if yes, where do I get the email of the GST officer? If not where do I send the letter to? From the refund application tracking I can only see that it's assigned to "Assistant Commissioner,Ward 93". I don't have the contact details of the concerned person.

Also, can you help in this matter? I can pay the fees you'll charge, if you are willing to resolve my issue.
