We issued Invoice to a Buyer, a year ago. But now he refuses to pay Invoice amount of around Rs 15,000.

1. Can we Lodge Complaint in Self Service Portal ?

2. Can we issue Credit Note ?

3. Or, We can contact their Assessing Commissioner office ?

In this case what is appropriate step against Buyer, or anyone suggest me better option.

Quick Summary

A seller is seeking advice after a buyer refused to pay an outstanding GST invoice of approximately Rs 15,000, issued a year ago for sales of material. The seller has inquired about lodging a complaint, issuing a credit note, or contacting the buyer's Assessing Commissioner. A response suggests issuing a credit note, but notes this is only possible if the invoice date is after 01.04.2019 and the credit note is issued before 30th Sept 2020.

The Invoice is issued against Sales of Material. Buyer Purchases material from us from couple of months and making regular payment, but when their work completes, they ran away with our Balance of Rs 15000 (Aprox)
