Refund of service tax excess paid in cash

Excess paid amount was to be caried forward through service tax return (but option is closed now, return can not be revised) 

Only solution was available through TRAN-1 (credits available in erlier laws was allowed to be carried forward through TRAN-1)

so in my openion you can not carry forward such amount

In my opinion cal  from department should not be taken as communication from Governement department 

if you would have received a written notice and on that basis action was taken by you, in that case it was admissible to reverse the credit of service tax paid in cash

but now you have to expense it out
