What is an E-Way Bill?
E-Way Bill is the short form of Electronic Way Bill. It is a unique document/bill, which is electronically generated for the specific consignment/movement of goods from one place to another, either inter-state or intra-state and of value more than ₹ 50,000, required under the current GST regime.
Who should generate an e-Way Bill?
When a GST registered entity causes the movement of goods/ consignment, either as a buyer or as a seller, in his/her vehicle or hired vehicle or railways or by air or by ship, then either that registered entity or the recipient should generate the e-Way Bill in Form GST EWB 01 electronically on the common portal by furnishing information in Part B. However, if the GST registered entity has not generated the e-Way Bill before handing over to the transporter for transportation by road, then it is the transporter who needs to generate the bill. The registered entity will first furnish the information relating to the transporter in Part B of Form GST EWB. After which, the transporter will generate the e-Way Bill by the information furnished by the registered entity through Part A of Form GST EQB 01.
When an unregistered entity causes the movement of goods, through his/her conveyance or hired conveyance or using the services of a transporter, then the e-Way Bill needs to be generated either by the unregistered entity or by the transporter, by completing Form GST EWB-01. However, when an unregistered entity supplies the goods to a registered entity and the registered entity is known to the unregistered entity at the time of the start of the movement of goods, then it will be considered that the registered entity is moving the consignment. In this case, the registered entity or transporter shall complete the formalities of the e-Way Bill.
When Should e-Way Bill Be Issued?
Ideally, e-Way Bill should be generated before the commencement of movement of goods above the value of ₹50,000 (either individual invoice or consolidated invoice of multiple consignments).
