Excess input tax credit relating to invoices for FY 2018-19 to 2020-21 was treated as validly reversed through debit entries in the electronic cash and credit ledgers reported in Form GST DRC-03. Absence of reasons in column 8 did not invalidate the reversal, as that field was not mandatory; Form GST DRC-04 acknowledged payment and the reconciliation statement supported full reversal. Section 16(5) extended the relevant ITC entitlement. For a Section 73 demand within Section 128A, interest and penalty require fresh computation after hearing, with waiver available subject to the prescribed procedure.
