Quick Summary
Discussion on accounting treatment of fixed assets reaching residual value in books. Options include writing off assets or selling as scrap and booking income. Concern raised about GST ITC reversal u/s 17(5)(h) if assets are written off, depending on asset life and usage.

Best practice will be Write off from books and when ever you actually sold book as other income in p&l.

But in that case i have to reverse the ITC claimed pursuant to section 17(5)(h) of the CGST Act, 2017

Dependingnon the asset. Useful life of asset.
