Dear Expert

Please advice for refund provision if any for following Case:-

The manufacturer are producing Cement and Clinker under HSN-2526 and Sales within in India. Cement is taxable @28% ( SGST-14% & CGST-14%) and no any GST Compensation Cess is leviable. However in production of Cement, Coal is require to running the Kilan(generating the heat) and on procurement of Coal Cess is leviable @ ₹ 400/- per tone.

As per provision of Act, Compensation Cess can be utiliase for payment of out put Cess only. Hence Compensation Cess is going to accumulation.

Further, Whether answer will be same if manufacturer is exporting as well selling Cement and Clinker within India.

Dear Querist,

Answer is not the same.

Compensation cess accumulated because final product is not subject to levy of compensation cess.

(i) If no compensation cess is leviable on final product, but compensation cess has been availed on inputs , refund of accumulated ITC can be claimed. Circular no. 45/19/2018-GST dated 30.5.18 refers.You cannot claim refund of compensation cess by making payment of IGST via export.In other words, you cannot claim refund of compensation cess in case of zero rated supply on payment of IGST.

Compensation cess accumulated because of export

(ii) Refund of compensation cess paid on goods exported is admissible. Read Section 16(3)(b) of IGST Act, 2017.

This issue has been clarified vide C.B.I. & C. Circular No. 79/53/2018-GST, dated 31-12-2018. (Point No.9 is relevant).

In view of Board's clarification, you are eligible for refund claim of Compensation Cess as your final product is cement on which cess is not leviable.
