Sharma Traders, a registered person, accepts the discrepancy mentioned in a scrutiny notice and pays the tax and interest arising from it. The proper officer finds the payment and explanation acceptable. Which sequence of forms correctly describes the process under the CGST Rules, 2017?

The officer issues ASMT-10 as the scrutiny notice, the registered person responds with payment and explanation in ASMT-11, and if the officer finds it acceptable he informs the person in ASMT-12. GSTR-3A relates to non-filers, not scrutiny.
