Section 109 of the Finance Act also has some amendments. After the clause in subsection 2, another clause got inserted. It is furnished by the supplier in case of the outward supplies. Also, the responsible person should communicate this detail to the recipient of the debit or invoice note. However, one should do it in a manner specified under section 37.
Moreover, the Central Board of Indirect Tax and Customs has notified that the various rules related to the other authentication of GST revocation and refund would be applicable from January 1, 2022. One should keep a check on all the details of the GST on the official website, including the ARN status.

The amendment in the GST also finds its place in section 114 of the Finance Act. It amended section 75. The authority inserts the expression of self-assessed tax, including all the tax payables.

Inclusion of tax payable of the self-assessed tax
Section 115 of the Finance Act of 2021 looks for amendment into section 83.

It should belong to the taxable person or any person stated in subsection 1A of section 122.
-
Non-filing of any appeal against section 129 part three order
The amendment to the Goods and Service Tax seems to be an amendment to section 107 of the Finance Act 2021. It rightly states that one would file no appeal against any order under section 129 with subsection 3. It would be the case unless the applicant gives a 25% penalty.
Apart from that, one can seek changes in section 119 of the Finance Act. It aptly substitutes section 151, mainly ‘power to call for information.’ Moreover, the proper officer in charge of seizing or detailing conveyance or goods should issue a notice within the 7 days of seizure or detention. Hence these are the 7 important changes that one might have in the Goods and Service Tax in the Year 2022.
