About GST Refund

Many businesses accumulate GST refunds that go unclaimed — money that rightfully belongs back in your working capital. Refunds commonly arise from exports of goods or services (with or without payment of tax), supplies to SEZs, an inverted duty structure where inputs are taxed higher than outputs, and excess balance in the electronic cash ledger. Claiming a refund requires filing Form RFD-01 with supporting statements and reconciliations, within two years of the relevant date. The process is document-intensive and the department scrutinises claims closely. We prepare accurate refund applications, respond to queries, and follow up to ensure your eligible GST refunds are received promptly.
