How to use the "My masters" option in GST login?

To help the taxpayers make data entries faster and to reduce errors while creating their Statement of outward supplies in Form GSTR-1, the ‘My Master’ facility has been created on the GST portal. In this option, taxpayers can save details of their recipients and suppliers and the HSN of the commodities they deal in for the following two masters on the portal and in the offline tool:

• Product Master
• Supplier/Recipient Master

Now whenever a taxpayer enters data in the related field of GSTR-1 for which the master exists, the Offline tool/portal will fetch the details from the Master and will show the probable values in the drop-down based on the keywords entered. By selecting the dropdown, all the corresponding fields of that row shall be filled up automatically. Taxpayers can also upload the master created offline on the GST common portal as a JSON file to update their online master, and, similarly download the master created online and import it in the offline tool to update their master created offline.
