GST Refund

Once you have identified that you have a GST claim for refund then you need to file your claim through GST Refund Form RFD-01. This form preferably should be prepared by a certified Chartered Accountant and this GST claim need to be made within 2 years of “relevant date” of the GST refunds application. The different “relevant date” is defined for different GST Refund scenarios, which one can check on online tax site or with the Chartered accountant who is preparing your GST refund.

In case you fail to file your GST claim within mentioned timelines then you may never get your GST refunds and your credits may be blocked forever. When the assesse submits his GST Refund form he gets an acknowledgement form GST RFD-02 which is auto-generated. This GST Refund form RFD-02 helps the assesse for any future reference for his GST claim and is sent to taxpayer’s email or phone number as an SMS.

Once the GST claim by assesse is found to have any deficiencies then a Form RFD-03 is generated and sent to the taxpayer asking him to correct his application.
