New GSTN feature to correct mistakes in GST invoice matching process for claiming input tax credit; Know how it works

The Goods and Services Tax Network has introduced the Invoice Management System (IMS) on the GST portal, effective October 1, 2024. This new feature is designed to assist GST-registered taxpayers in claiming input tax credit (ITC) with fewer disputes. With IMS, invoice data entered by sellers in a designated form on the GST portal will automatically appear in the buyer's IMS. Using this information, buyers can choose to accept, reject, or leave the invoice pending. Once a buyer accepts an invoice, it will then be included in their GSTR-2B as an eligible input tax credit.
