As per Rule 96 , the refund of IGST paid on export of goods is processed and disbursed by Customs.

The following are top reasons for validation failures: Export Invoices filed in Table 6A of GSTR 1 did not have information of SB Number, SB Date or Port Code, Total IGST, payable through export invoices specified under Table 6A of GSTR 1 , is not specified correctly under Table 3.1(b) of GSTR 3B and incorrectly mentioned under Table 3.1(a) or Table 3.1(c) of GSTR 3B , IGST submitted under Table 3.1(b) of GSTR 3B is less than total IGST, payable through export invoices specified under Table 6A of GSTR 1 of that tax period.

Further, it has also been observed that some taxpayers who had filed GSTR 1E (Table 6A) with deficiencies, due to which their refund of IGST paid on export didn't process, subsequently, filed GSTR 1 with corrected data of Table 6A. However, such data was not allowed to be integrated again in Table 6A because the taxpayer had already filed his GSTR 1E (Table 6A). In such case, the taxpayer has to amend his Table 6A data through Table 9A of subsequent GSTR 1. Some invoices, which were successfully validated by GST System and transmitted to ICEGATE, failed validations at ICEGATE. The following are the main reasons: Mismatch in invoice number and date of the invoices filed in GST System and .....

Mismatch of port code given in invoice filed in GST System and the invoices given in SB at customs Mismatch of other details of invoices filed at GST System and invoices filed with SB like value, IGST amount etc. Due to such validation failures, the refund of IGST paid on exports is impacted and not processed. Therefore, exporters/taxpayers are hereby requested to follow the following advisory so that they may file their returns ( GSTR 1 / GSTR3B) correctly, ensuring that their refund of IGST paid on export of goods are processed successfully.

You should not add the sales value in the current return, GSTR 3B , since the sales value has already been considered in the previous GSTR 3B return of respective month.
