A GST refund application must generally be filed within two years from the relevant date, as provided in Section 54 of the CGST Act. The relevant date depends on the type of refund — for example, the date of export of goods, or the end of the financial year in which the credit arose for unutilised ITC on inverted duty structure, or the date of payment of tax for excess payments.
The application is filed online on the GST portal in Form GST RFD-01. Since the relevant date differs by refund type, confirm yours with your CA before the period runs out.
