You can nett off the pymt. But you should have some instrument (like bill copy) of $ 5000 indicating amount obliged by you while filling 15CA/CB certificate with bank.

As per normal circumstances, what your friend said is correct. Netting is not permitted in India. However as a special case, to clear the Bill of Entry with banker, you need to tell him that you received a credit note from your supplier for $5000 for reason whatsoever it may be and ensure that the BOE is cleared for full value of $20,000 eventhough you pay $15,000 only
