The mapping is a legal concordance, not a round-robin related-link list. It is limited to instruments certified in this phase.
Practical example
A professional first identifies whether the facts trigger rule 82, fixes the relevant period, checks the mapped subordinate instruments and preserves evidence before filing or advising.
Professional alert
• GSTR-11 does not by itself establish refund eligibility. • Supplier reporting and invoice details should reconcile before submission.

Practical Q&A
- What does rule 82 regulate?
- It regulates inward supplies of persons having a unique identity. Read the exact text, conditions, exceptions and transaction date together.

- No direct CGST Rule has been certified in this phase. Notifications, circulars, forms and the corresponding SGST/UTGST layer may also apply.
- What evidence should be retained?
- Preserve the contract or transaction record, invoice or form, portal acknowledgement, payment/ledger evidence, correspondence, legal working and the official source version used.
