Only based on the order/notice received from the department you can avail the refund. Moreover, there is no interest liability for you on such wrong payment. Hence, practically suggested to wait till the department arrives and issues notice for payment of proper taxes to the paid wrong taxes and intimates for refund of the same. So that you can avoid interest applicability also. - Reply By YAGAY andSUN - The Reply = In Shree Nanak Ferro Alloys (P.) Ltd. v.

Though the section 77 (1) states that a refund shall be granted subject to conditions. It is ought to be noted that Rule 89 (l) and (m) states that the incidence of the tax has not been passed on to any other person. In the current scenario the incidence of tax has been passed to recipient as the recipient would have made the payment. Hence Ref .....

Issue one credit note and also simultaneously issue an invoice with IGST. while doing this you will have net cash payment is Nil. recipient will account the credit note and also new invoice and hence recipient credit get adjusted automatically. however it is to be noted that if recipient already utilized his CGST and SGST then he has to pay the tax in cash. this approach is most suitable for service invoices. - Reply By KASTURI SETHI - The Re .....

As the time of supply is already over and adhered to pay tax and as ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... per provisions also interest is not enforceable. This way of adjustment will not be inline with sec.34 but it is with in the purview of adjustment which is holistic to do without impacting the same. Practically we can say that the services are failed and hence credit note issued. And said services are done in next 1 weeks time hence re issued invoice. I suggest the queries to give credit note with 1st of the month and invoice with last day of the month. - Reply By SESHU KUMAR - The Reply = Hi all It may be interesting to note sec.34 uses words may issue a credit note and hence it is not barring issuing credit note in any other scenario.

If the period specified u/s 34 is lapsed, then the only way is to pay correct tax and claim refund of wrong paid tax as specified Sec 77 .

As the query arisen whether after 2 years the refund is eligible or not. I would like to bring your attention towards below (d) in case where the tax becomes refundable as a consequence of judgment, decree, order or direction of the Appellate Authority, Appellate Tribunal or any court, the date of communication of such judgment, decree, order or direction; So , whi .....

It may be CGST+SGST or IGST. This is because that the responsibility is upon the supplier to correctly determine the correct place of supply and pay tax under correct head. - Reply By KASTURI SETHI - The Reply = Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani Ji, Yes.
