Refund of utilized input tax credit - rejection of claim for refund - When the law requires that no application for refund shall be rejected without giving the applicant an opportunity of being heard, the same cannot be substituted by telephonic conversations and exchange of e-mails. This is more so in the case of a claim for refund where no time-limit is fixed vis-à-vis rejection of claim. Under subsection (7) of section 54, a time-limit of 60 days is prescribed for making of an order allowing claim of refund; but that period of 60 days would commence from the date of receipt of the application complete in all respects without there being a corresponding provision for rejection of application not complete in all respects. - HC
