    Refund entitlement for unutilised input tax credit limited to credits from input goods under inverted duty structure.
    The document contrasts two high court approaches to refund of unutilised input tax credit under an inverted duty structure: one holding that Net ITC for refund must include credits on inputs and input services and striking down a rule excluding input services as ultra vires; the other upholding the proviso that limits refund to credit accumulated because tax on input goods exceeds tax on output supplies, finding an amended rule that excludes input services to be intra vires and a valid legislative classification.
