CESTAT allowed the refund application, holding that the limitation period was validly extended by Supreme Court's COVID-19 order. The appellant's refund application filed on 12.04.2022 was deemed timely, as the period from 15.03.2020 to 28.02.2022 was explicitly excluded from limitation calculations.
