Before unloading goods returned back

[S.C. WADHWA]

Dear Expert,

When goods found unacceptable due to quality issue, full consignment or part. My query is how to returned these goods while mentioning on party invoice ' Rejected due to quality issue' or issue debit note or supplimentary invoice along with E-way bill. In this case we will get common input tax as goods used both in taxable as well as in exempted items but GST charged in debit note will have to pay in full. Please suggest the right procedure.
