The refund included ITC credited against goods (inputs) and services. Now we have been instructed to repay the refund received against input services against Notification No. 26\/2018 dt. 13.06.2018 retrospective effect from 01.07.2017.<br \/>\nNow, my query is shall reverse the demanded amount from Electronic Credit Ledger today as I have sufficient balance now or I have to pay only in Cash Ledger. I think this reversal of GST is eligible for re-credit of ITC as the Department has not denied the credit and denied only the refund. If I pay cash in Cash Ledger, shall I use the amount for offset of GST payment immediately in the same month itself.<br \/>\nReply By KAST<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/forum\/issue?id=114305\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>dit ledger will be complete. Also, this is not the correct solution but best solution available.<br \/>\nWith due respect to you and expert comment above, there is no question of re credit above. There is no Refund claim pending and ITC portion available with officer to &#8220;re credit&#8221; the same as, re credit is only allowed on basis of order RFD 01B and nothing else. I have assumed you have already received RFD 06.<br \/>\nReply By KASTURI SETHI:<br \/>\nThe Reply:<br \/>\nElectronic Cash Ledger is equal to erstwhile PLA (Personal Ledger Account). In this account an assessee deposits tax amount through e-challan and debits from the same to transfer in Central Govt. Account.

Thus the remaining issues are relegated to the background. I also agree with your logic that the party must not rrepay the amount without letter or SCN irrespective of the fact whether the amount is small or huge. To repay the amount of sanctioned refund in view of retrospective amendment and that too after the expiry of six months is unconstitutional. When the department is on weak wicket regarding merits\/legal aspect, the department tries to recover through persuasive strategy.
