What happens after the commutation of main SCR?

Once the main SCR T1 is turned off, load current I0 begins to flow from source Vs to load though C, L and D. This causes capacitor C to charge linearly from Vab to zero at t = t4 and then to source voltage Vs at t=t5. At t=t5, the capacitor is charged up to source voltage Vs with its left hand plate positive. Therefore, capacitor will not allow the flow of load current after t=t5.
