What are the remedies available where gst was paid at the rate of 12%, GSTR-1, 3B and 9 was filed with the same rate. Now in the next year assessee realised that the tax rate was 5%. Whether he is eligible to get the refund?

If taxes are erroneously paid in excess in GSTR-3B, the same can be claimed as a refund (as per Section 54 of CGST Act) or be adjusted against tax payments of subsequent periods. But, the same cannot be claimed though GSTR-9. The refund needs to be claimed by making an application for the same on GST portal.

You can make changes until you submit the GSTR-9. However, once submitted, you can not make any changes in GSTR-9.
