07 June 2026 Interest on DRC-03 via Credit Ledger: If reversing wrongly availed ITC, no interest is payable unless that ITC was actually utilized (Section 50(3)). If paying short output tax, the department may demand interest, but it can be contested if sufficient credit balance existed continuously since the due date.

GSTR-1 Late Fees during Audit: The audit officer has the legal authority under Section 47 to demand late fees for delayed GSTR-1 filings for previous financial years, regardless of whether the portal auto-collected them at the time of filing.
