E-Way Bill Registration

An e-way bill is mandatory for inter-state movement of goods where the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000. For intra-state movement, e-way bill requirements vary by state, with thresholds typically between ₹50,000 and ₹1,00,000 depending on state rules.

Yes, taxpayers need separate registration on the e-way bill portal (ewaybillgst.gov.in) using their GSTIN. Transporters also need separate registration on the portal to generate e-way bills on behalf of multiple consignors.

The validity depends on the distance traveled: 1 day for up to 100 km, 1 additional day for every 100 km or part thereof. For example, for 400 km distance, the e-way bill is valid for 4 days from generation.

In case of urgent or unforeseen circumstances, an e-way bill can be generated within 24 hours of the commencement of movement. However, it is always recommended to generate the e-way bill before the movement of goods begins.

Transporting goods without a valid e-way bill attracts a penalty of ₹10,000 or the tax amount sought to be evaded, whichever is higher. The goods and vehicle can also be detained and seized by the GST authorities.
