Draft Manual on Invoice Management System
GST
Dated:- 18-9-2024

In a significant leap forward in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) ecosystem, the GST Common Portal has unveiled a ground breaking new facility, the Invoice Management System (IMS), revolutionizing the way recipient taxpayers interact with invoices. This innovative feature empowers taxpayers to seamlessly accept, reject, or keep invoices pending in the system to avail later as and when required, streamlining the reconciliation process, and ensuring greater accuracy and efficiency in GST compliance.
The new system shall facilitate taxpayers in matching their records/invoices vis a vis issued by their suppliers for availing the correct Input Tax Credit (ITC). This facility is set to transform the way businesses manage their GST obligations, reducing errors, and saving time and resources. For a detailed draft manual Please Click Here.

T Common Portal continues to set new benchmarks in taxpayer convenience and
experience.
This facility shall be available to the taxpayer from 14th October onwards on the GST portal. It
may be noted that it is not mandatory to accept or reject invoices in IMS dashboard for GSTR-
2B generation. If a taxpayer chooses not to take any action on the received invoices then its
GSTR-2B would be generated on 14th of the month as being generated today. The invoices where
no action would be taken by the recipient would be treated as accepted by the system and a draft
GSTR-2B shall be generated including only accepted or 'no action taken' invoices. However, the
recipient taxpayers are allowed to take action or change the action already taken on accepted
invoices till the filing of Form GSTR-3B of the month.
A detailed step wise procedure with screenshots from the GST common portal is mentioned
below to guide the taxpayers for using the facility.
