Manufacturer have above details. All the inputs used for making outward supply of 5 & 12 %. It means the case is falling under Inverted Duty structure. But as per above calculation my purchases are more than my sales so officer saying you are stocking up the raw material that is why there is balance in Credit Ledger , hence you are not eligible for refund.
