Refund of wrongly paid GST available when supply classification is subsequently corrected, subject to the prescribed limitation period. Refunds for tax paid under an incorrect GST head are available where the supply is subsequently reclassified either by the taxpayer or by a tax/adjudicatory authority, provided the taxpayer pays tax under the correct head. The refund claim must be filed within two years from the date of payment under the correct head; for payments made before the refund rule amendment, the two year period runs from the amendment's effective date. Refunds are not available if tax was adjusted by issuance of a credit note.
