Q.10 How can I find whether my refund data has been successfully transmitted by GSTN to Customs or not? Ans. GSTN is reportedly working on a feedback/message system so as to inform the exporters about such failed validations. At present, the Customs system, does not have any information about the reasons for which validation at GSTN has failed. However, for all those records which have been successfully transmitted to Customs system, the report can be generated at the end of field officers.

SB000 (Successfully Validated) is the response code which comes when all the decided parameters like GSTIN, SB number, invoice number etc. match between GSTN and Customs databases. This code implies that the SB is ready for inclusion in the IGST refund scroll. However, it might happen that even with SB000, the SB does not appear in the refund scroll. This could be due to : (i) The exports might have been made under bond or LUT, hence not eligible for refund. (ii) If a shipping bill covers multiple invoices, few of the invoices might have been successfully validated with code SB000 whereas other invoices might be containing other types of error/s. (iii) Composite rate of drawback has been claimed for that SB during the transitional period between 1-7-2017 to 30-9-2017, thus making the SB ineligible for IGST refund. (iv) Where the IGST claimed amount is less than ₹ 1000/-. In all the above cases, the scroll amount shall automatically become zero and the SBs shall not be included in the refund scroll.
