When goods are received back (for whatsoever reason), only recourse is to issue credit note under section 34 to reverse the supply transaction. After reversal of unfructified supply, the IGST paid restores and lie as excess tax paid to be adjusted or included in refund claim. Please consider if this approach is feasible. It is a wonder that Customs have rejected the goods, very interesting!
