Refund of Tax - Export by payment of tax

[THYAGARAJAN KALYANASUNDARAM]

Dear Expert,

One of my clients had exported goods by payment of tax. While filing GSTR 3B returns, the export was wrongly shown in column 3.1 (a) instead of 3.1 (b). However, correctly filed GSTR. Kindly let me know the course of action for claiming export refund in this scenario?

Thank you in advance
