As per Your query.,

You are not a import and export process... good.


What about Your supplies tax rate with inwards tax rate...?

If Your purchase tax rate more than sales tax rate then You can claim refund of unutilized Input Tax...

For ex:

if Your sales items tax rate 5%
and Purchase have tax rate 18% then have 13% excess ITC in your credit ledger.
You can claim refund for the ITC...
Refund allowed only in two case..
1. export of goods or services
2. invert duty structure
so u are not allowed to get refund of ur accumulated it....

The business (Private  Limited Co) has not made any sales and only incurred expenditure and now wanted to close the business, can it claim refund of excess balance in credit ledger??

Kindly suggest
