Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether taxpayers can submit a single GST refund application for an inverted duty structure covering the financial years 2017-18 up to 2021-22. While monthly taxpayers might combine periods, quarterly taxpayers can only merge quarters. Crucially, the two-year time limit for claiming refunds applies, and the COVID-19 exclusion period (March 2020 to Feb 2022) doesn't extend eligibility for periods beyond the standard two-year window.

As per section 54 of the CGST act, you have to apply for refund before expiry of two years from relevant date.
