Excess output tax paid beyond monthly liability may be set off against ineligible input tax credit where no overall tax short payment arises, avoiding an unnecessary payment-and-refund cycle. Refund of such excess output tax falls within the stated statutory exception and is not subject to unjust-enrichment scrutiny. Sales-return claims supported by valid credit and debit notes cannot be rejected solely for non-uploading on the GST portal where no mandatory upload requirement applied. Reasoned appellate orders must address material submissions, and demands cannot rest on grounds beyond the show cause notice. Interest for delayed return filing requires a notice identifying the relevant defaults, tax base and computation.
