Respected Experts,
I would like to understand from the community when the Invoice Management System (IMS) under GST has been made mandatory. There are various updates circulating regarding its implementation date, and I seek clarity on the official effective date and its applicability for regular taxpayers.
Is IMS mandatory from October 2025 onwards? Kindly confirm with reference to any official notification or GSTN update.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Arvind
