Rule 70 was omitted from 1 October 2022. It formerly required electronic communication of final acceptance of input tax credit in FORM GST MIS-1. The former rule also covered claims first reported as mismatched but later matched after correction by the supplier or recipient. These were historical procedures, whose application to earlier periods depends on the relevant law and savings.[1]
