Refund of excess electronic cash ledger: statutory time limits and unjust enrichment certification not required; TDS/TCS credits refundable. The Board clarifies that the time limit for filing refund applications does not apply to refunds of excess electronic cash ledger balances; certification to guard against unjust enrichment is unnecessary for such refunds.

For deemed export supplies, the relevant date for refund of tax paid is the date of the return furnished by the supplier, since the supplier pays the tax in his return.
