Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to claim GST refunds for accumulated Input Tax Credit (ITC) when providing export services under a Letter of Undertaking (LUT). It also addresses claiming refunds for ITC related to Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) payments. The advice points to specific refund heads and references relevant circulars that clarify eligibility, even for ITC not appearing in GSTR-2A.
You can claim refund of accumulated ITC based on formula prescribed in cgst rules. circular no. 139 merely clarifies that refund of ITC on acoc*nt of RCM payment can be claimed. however, even without this circular, supplier was always eligible to avail refund of such ITC
Hemal yes RCM was eligible before But CBIC issued Circular (135/05/2020 dated 31stMarch2020) which mentioned ITC which is shown in GSTR2A of applicant will only be eligible for refund due to which Dept is disallowed or rejecting the RCM ITC for refund.
Thus the circular mentioned above i.e. 139/09/2020 was issued to clarify and allow RCM, ISD and Imports ITC for refund even though not shown in GSTR 2A.
