To claim a refund of Input Tax Credit (ITC) on capital goods like the JCB machine purchased by the brick manufacturer, the procedure generally involves the following steps:
1. **Eligibility Check**: Ensure that you are eligible to claim a refund of ITC. For capital goods, you must fulfill the conditions under Section 54(3) of the CGST Act, 2017. This includes exporting goods or services, or having accumulated ITC due to inverted duty structure (where the tax rate on inputs is higher than on outputs).
2. **Prepare Refund Application**: Prepare a refund application in Form GST RFD-01 on the GST portal. Select the relevant reason for refund under the "Refund Type" section. For capital goods, you may choose "Refund of accumulated ITC on account of exports without payment of tax".
3. **Document Submission**: Attach necessary documents to support your refund claim. These typically include: - Purchase invoice of the JCB machine - Proof of payment for the JCB machine - GST payment details - GST returns for the relevant period - Export documents, if claiming refund on account of exports
4. **File Application**: File the refund application electronically on the GST portal. Make sure all details are accurately filled in and all required documents are uploaded.
5. **Verification and Processing**: The GST authorities will verify the details and documents submitted. They may seek additional information or documents if required.
6. **Approval and Refund**: Once the application is processed and approved by the GST authorities, the refund amount will be credited to your bank account through the GST portal.
7. **Track Application**: Monitor the status of your refund application regularly on the GST portal.
It's important to note that the process and requirements may vary slightly based on specific circumstances and GST rules prevalent at the time of application. Therefore, it's advisable to consult with a GST professional or advisor who can assist you with the detailed procedure and ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements.
