Quick Summary
This discussion explores the possibility of refunding a Rs. 5000 CGST credit ledger balance. While GST law allows refunds for unutilised Input Tax Credit (ITC) in cases of zero-rated supplies or inverted duty structures, a refund for excess CGST arising from IGST purchases adjusted against sales, especially with RCM transactions, is generally not permissible via RFD-01 unless it falls into these specific categories.

Yes but the amount of excess cgst in which transaction

We have only IGST purchase which adjusted with our sales CGST & SGST, but every month we have also transport RCM, so excess credit ledger is such type of input.

GST law permits refund of unutilised ITC in two scenarios, namely if such credit accumulation is on account of zero rated supplies or on account of inverted duty structure, subject to certain exceptions.
Since this does not belong to any of them, the refund of such amount cannot be claimed via RFD-01
