Dear Panelists,

Guidance Sought on Calculating ITC Refunds for Supplies to Merchant Exporters at 0.1% Rate Under Inverted Tax Structure A participant in a discussion forum inquired about claiming a refund for accumulated Input Tax Credit (ITC) due to an inverted tax structure from supplying goods to Indian Railways and merchant exporters at a 0.1% rate. A respondent referenced Circular No. 37/11/2018-GST and Notification 5/2017 CT (Rate), noting that a refund is not eligible for supplies to the railway. Other participants agreed with this assessment. The original inquirer requested further guidance on calculating refunds for goods supplied to merchant exporters at 0.1%. (AI Summary)
