Challenge to clarificatory circulars restricting refund of accumulated unutilised input tax credit under an inverted duty structure: court held the ''relevant date'' for refund is the due date for furnishing the return for the period in which the claim arises, so the petitioner's refund right accrued before the circular and the application fell within the statutory two year limitation.
