Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a textile business can claim a refund for excess Input Tax Credit (ITC) accumulated due to higher GST rates on packing materials (12-18%) compared to finished products like sarees (5%). While an inverted duty structure generally allows for refunds, the consensus here is that it may not apply if packing materials don't constitute a substantial cost of the final product, with grey fabric and embellishments being more significant cost drivers.

Yes..inverted rate structure..only allow if such inward Supply is important part of outward supply
According to me, It's not a inverted duty structure.
Bacause Packing material like boxes, cartoons as inward Supply is not taking a substantial part of cost.
Substantial cost of saree which is material in nature is Grey fabric or cost of embroidery work on its ect.
So, refund of ITC not available because not inverted duty structure as explained above.
