Prepare your own working with Fast GST Refund
The JSON generator creates the Statement 3 and Annexure B files for RFD-01 in your browser, without the Excel utilities. Checking your records is free; downloading both files costs ₹499 + GST once per GSTIN and refund period.
The free preparation pack includes Statement 3 and Annexure B working templates, an offline allocation checker and a review checklist. Use the MCP tools or Codex plugin to retrieve guidance, check anonymous receipt allocations, and check your Statement 3 and Annexure B records.
These tools do not retrieve data from your GST or accounting accounts, and they do not file the application. You or your adviser review the records and file.
Evaluate MyGSTRefund’s service scope
Ask for a demonstration using a redacted service-export case, then record:
- Who reconciles invoices, receipts and ITC, and who approves the calculation.
- Who signs and files RFD-01.
- Whether the fee covers deficiency memos and later notices.
- How partial sanction, withdrawal or an unsuccessful claim affects fees.
- What access the provider needs and how you receive the final working papers.
These answers let you compare the engagement with the work your team would otherwise perform. The MyGSTRefund review expands the evaluation checklist.
Choose your next step
Use the generator and the free pack if you want to prepare the claim yourself. Seek a service quote if you want a provider to take on agreed preparation or filing work. In either case, start with the document checklist so the scope reflects your actual records.
