Retrospective input tax credit under section 16(5) was held to relax only the time bar in section 16(4) for specified returns and not to waive other eligibility conditions.

Re-availment of reversed input tax credit was also treated as a refund barred by section 150 of the Finance (No. 2) Act, 2024, since the provision expressly covers reversed credit and a narrower reading would produce absurd results.
