I had made an online payment of tax as per GSTR 3B net of cenvat. But due to an online net banking issue the same didn't got debited so later the same amount was paid again and GSTR3B was filed.
Later, the earlier transaction which was done also got debited & the amount was standing in the cash ledger.
So, the above payment was made twice & one used in GSTR3B & other is left in cash ledger.
Can the above amount be refunded to the bank account on the pretex of twice payment wrongly made.

The amount got credited in GST cash ledger. It can only be claimed as refund under GST provisions or can be utilised in future GSTR 3 b filing.

yes, you can adjust the amount standing in the electronic cash ledger. no need to apply for refund as it is long procedure and you can utilise the money in the next month.

In response to your reply, we dont want to carry forward the amount in next month. we want to go for refund, but as the amount in cash ledger, can refund be still receivable ? If yes, please guide on the procedure for the same.
