CAMS has told distributors it is introducing an online way to submit GST invoices: log in, verify with an OTP, upload one signature image, and submit, with no printing or scanning. CAMS says it is expected on or before 15 July 2026. Here is what the facility does, step by step, and the GST work that still stays with you.

From the CAMS communication and user guide sent to distributors in July 2026.
The facility lets a distributor submit CAMS-generated invoices from inside the CAMS portal. You verify with an OTP sent to your registered email or mobile, upload one image of your signature, and CAMS applies it to the pending invoices and sends them on to the fund houses. CAMS says it is expected to be available on or before 15 July 2026. Availability can change, so the only way to know is to log in and look: if the option is there for your ARN, you can use it; if not, this month's invoices go up the normal way.
A condensed version of the CAMS user guide.
Open the Distributors/RIA tab, then Service Requests, and log in with the email registered with the CAMS Distributor Mailback Service.
Pick your fund houses under the Mutual Fund dropdown, then open GST Invoice Management and GST Invoice Upload.
Select Individual, choose CAMS-Generated Invoices as the source, and pick Sign with Signature Upload. If you use your own invoice format, this path is not available: you select Manual Document Upload and sign, scan, and upload yourself.
Select the payment month and year (the brokerage month is the month before), get an OTP on your registered email or mobile, and fetch your pending invoices.
The pending invoices are pre-selected. Tick the authorisation for CAMS to apply your signature, upload one clear signature image (PNG or JPG), preview it on an invoice, and submit. Uploaded invoices then show as Approved or Under Review.
Whichever way your invoices reach CAMS.
Every invoice you raise to a fund house, on CAMS and on KFIN, has to appear in your GSTR-1 with the right GSTIN, invoice number, and tax split. Typing 20, 30, or 40 fund house lines into the GST portal takes hours and one wrong GSTIN means a mismatch. When you make your invoices with MFD Office, the GST return tab prepares the GSTR-1 file for the GST portal from those same invoices, plus an Excel your CA can check. Read the full guide: GSTR-1 filing for mutual fund distributors.
CAMS and KFIN, signed and ready in minutes, with the GSTR-1 file prepared from the same invoices. See one of your own invoices free, no signup.
Try with your file, freeCAMS has announced it with an expected date of on or before 15 July 2026. Log in to camsonline.com and open GST Invoice Management to see if it shows for you. If it is not there yet, this month's invoices still go up the normal way, and the 7th to 15th window does not wait.
No. The signature upload path is only for CAMS-generated invoices. Own-format invoices use Manual Document Upload: download, sign physically, scan, and upload.
No, it is a CAMS portal facility. The KFIN side keeps its own process. See the KFIN guide.
No. You still report every invoice in your own GSTR-1 on the GST portal each month. See how MFDs file GSTR-1.
