Refund of additional IGST paid on account of upward revision in prices of goods subsequent to exports
Refund of Additional IGST paid due to price hike after exports: The GST Council has approved the processing of refund applications for additional IGST paid due to upward price revisions after goods have been exported. This decision has been formalized through Notification No. 12/2024-Central Tax, dated 10th July 2024.
New Refund Category in Development
The GSTN is currently developing a new category within FORM GST RFD-01 specifically for refund applications related to additional IGST paid following a price increase. Until this category is available on the common portal, exporters can claim their refund by using FORM GST RFD-01 under the category “Any other.” They should include remarks stating “Refund of additional IGST paid on account of increase in price subsequent to export of goods” and attach Statements 9A & 9B, as detailed in Notification No. 12/2024-Central Tax.
Document Submission and Processing
Refund applications in this category will be processed by tax officers based on the submitted documentary evidence. The necessary documents to accompany the refund claim are outlined in Paragraph 6 of Circular 226/20/2024-GST, dated 11th July 2024.
Reporting Issues
Any issues encountered during the filing of the refund application can be reported via the Grievance Redressal Portal: https://selfservice.gstsystem.in.
This streamlined process aims to facilitate the refund of additional IGST paid by exporters due to price increases, ensuring compliance and efficiency within the GST framework.
