The point wise reply is as under:- 1. Yes, he can apply for refund of IGST paid on exports. 2. Yes, he can do so but he will have to intimate the concerned officer about this fact. It is advisable that LUT is surrendered if IGST is paid. 3. The list of documents required is given in Form RFD 01. Please check the list from there.
