We have made payment to creditors in different years after 180 days. Then the interest shall be calculated from the date of credit taken to last payment made to creditor for the total period on full amount, (or) proportionately as per the payments made to creditor on balance amount, which one is correct ? Kindly give your advise.

Since you have not paid the whole amount within 180 days, you need to reverse total credit on completion of 180 days with interest. You can then reclaim the credit proportionate to the part payment on making such part payment. See rule 37(1) (1)A registered person, who has availed of input tax credit on any inward supply of goods or services or both, but fails to pay to the supplier thereof, the value of such supply along with the tax payable thereon, within the time limit specified in the second proviso to sub- section(2) of section 16, shall furnish the details of such supply, the amount of value not paid and the amount of input tax credit availed of proportionate to such amount not paid to the supplier in FORM GSTR-2 for the month immediately following the period of one hundred and eighty days from the date of the issue of the invoice.
