By submitting a Refund application form RFD 01.

Services > Refunds > Application for Refund > Refund of Excess balance in Electronic Cash Ledger.

Yes, composition taxpayer can't make any interstate supply. But the create challan makes available area for IGST payment.

So it may happen right, wrong details entered while challan creation.

Should I pay IGST interstate purchases attracting reverse charge?

IGST should not be paid by a composition dealer. The dealer is required to pay tax under reverse charge, import of service or purchase from an unregistered dealer has to pay only CGST and SGST.

Mr. Hajib,

Portal is allowing to pay IGST under RCM in form GST-CMP-08.
Further There is nothing written in law that RCM can not be paid in IGST by composition dealer.

More ever Section 5(3) of IGST Act doesn't lay any restrictions of subjection for Composition dealer.

Further section 20 of IGST Act specifies that other provisions of CGST Act shall Mutatis Mutandis apply.
