E-Way Services
As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, the E-Way Bill (Electronic Way Bill) system is a mechanism in India for tracking the movement of goods for inter-state and intra-state transactions. The E-Way Bill is generated electronically on the official portal, and it contains details about the consignment, the supplier, the recipient, and the vehicle transporting the goods. This system aims to ensure the seamless movement of goods across state borders and prevent tax evasion.
Here are key points about E-Way services in India:
1. Applicability
- E-Way Bills are required for the movement of goods worth more than a specified value, both for inter-state and intra-state transactions.
- The threshold value for generating an E-Way Bill may vary between states.
2. Generation of E-Way Bills
- E-Way Bills can be generated on the official E-Way Bill portal or through various modes such as SMS, API integration, and mobile apps.
- The person responsible for transporting the goods (either the supplier, recipient, or transporter) is required to generate the E-Way Bill.
3. Validity Period
- The validity period of an E-Way Bill depends on the distance to be traveled by the goods. It is calculated from the date and time of generation.
4. Transporter ID
- The transporter is required to carry the E-Way Bill or the E-Way Bill number while transporting the goods.
5. Cancellation of E-Way Bills
- In certain situations, E-Way Bills can be canceled within a specific time frame after their generation.
6. Compliance and Penalties
- Non-compliance with E-Way Bill regulations can lead to penalties and fines.
