Export of Services under LUT and delay in realization

Services exported under LUT.  Exports not realized within 1 year of invoice.  Can we discharge IGST along with interest at the end of year 1 and CAN WE CLAIM REFUND OF IGST UPON THE EXPORT REALISATION? Thanks in advance.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the complexities of exporting services under a Letter of Undertaking (LUT) when export realisation is delayed beyond one year from the invoice date. It clarifies that if IGST was paid due to no LUT or if proceeds weren't received, reversal is necessary. Crucially, it confirms that a refund of paid GST can be claimed within three months of export proceeds being realised, referencing Rule 89 read with 96B for procedures.

No need to pay igst if there is an lut agreement
If there is no lut agreement then you have to pay igst
If there is no proceeds received but claimed igst then you have to reverse the igst earlier claimed amount.
Yes, you can claim refund of GST paid within three months from the date of export proceeds realizations.
