· In
GSTR 2A cases, clarified that the said statement and these invoices, instead
of being submitted physically, shall be
electronically uploaded on the common portal at the time of filing the claim
of refund in FORM GST RFD-01A.
Neither the application in FORM GST
RFD-01A, nor any of the supporting documents, shall
be required to be submitted physically in the office of the
jurisdictional proper officer.
· the
taxpayer will still have the option to physically submit the refund
application to the jurisdictional proper officer in FORM GST RFD-01A, along with supporting documents, if he so
chooses.
· The
acknowledgement for the complete application or deficiency
memo, as the case may be, would be issued by the jurisdictional tax officer
based on the documents so received electronically from the common portal.
However, the said acknowledgement or deficiency memo shall continue to be issued manually for the time being.
· A
refund application is electronically transferred to the wrong jurisdictional officer, he/she shall reassign it to the correct
jurisdictional officer electronically within a period of three days.
·
After the issuance of a deficiency memo,
taxpayers would be required to submit the rectified refund application under
the earlier Application Reference Number (ARN) only.
· The
documents/statements/undertakings/invoices to be submitted
along with the refund application in FORM
GST RFD-01A are the same as have been prescribed under the CGST Rules
and various Circulars issued on the subject from time to time. Only the
method of submission of these documents/statements/undertakings/invoices is being changed from the physical mode to the electronic
mode.
·
Where there are multiple
inputs attracting different rates of tax, in the formula provided in rule
89(5) of the CGST Rules, the term ‘Net ITC’ covers the ITC availed on all
inputs in the relevant period, irrespective of their rate of tax.
