Accordingly, the recipient of the goods or services would now have an option to take action such as Accept, Reject or Pending with respect to auto-populated data on the GSTN portal basis generation of IRNs / filing of GSTR 1 by the supplier, so that GSTR 2B can be accordingly computed for the respective recipient.
As clarified in the advisory, the IMS would be an optional facility for taxpayers to reduce errors in claiming input tax credit and improve reconciliation and accordingly, it would be open for the recipient to decide if they would want to avail this facility of IMS.
In case, your goodself opts to avail the benefit of this IMS facility, the same should be informed in writing to the below mentioned single point of contact (SPOC).
