Yes it should written off /written back
VAT and Services tax Shown in balance sheet having debit balance is refundable from department or in future can be set off against assessment of VAT if Liability arise..
If any amount for which is refund not available or due to other reason not available for future, than it should be written off/back in profit and loss Account.
