What is an e-Way Bill?

An e-Way bill is a necessary document for anyone transporting goods valued at over INR 50,000. All registered individuals or transporters are required to create this document on the GST Common Portal before initiating the transportation.

It was introduced to enforce GST compliance and combat tax evasion as it streamlines the movement of goods, saves time, and ensures transparency in logistics processes. Additionally, it enhances accountability by effectively tracking the transportation of goods, aligning with the principles of the GST Law.

Who Is Required To Create The e-Way Bill?

Registered individuals or transporters, whether they are the consignor (supplier) or consignee (recipient), can generate the e-Way bill for goods transportation.

Unregistered transporters can also sign up on the common portal to create e-Way bills for their clients’ goods. Additionally, any citizen, aside from the above-mentioned parties, can generate an e-Way bill for moving goods for personal use.

When Is An e-Way Bill Required?

An e-Way Bill is required when goods worth more than 50,000 are transported interstate or intrastate.

(Note: States were given the freedom to decide the limit for the intrastate movement of goods. Hence, the limit for generating e-Way bills varies with each state. For example, the limit to generate e-Way bills within Delhi is 1Lakh rupees.)

When is an e-Way Bill not required?

Similarly, when the value of goods to be transported is not more than 50,000; then an e-Way bill is not required.

Though movement of handicraft goods, and goods for job work are required to generate an e-Way bill, even if the value of goods in transit is less than 50,000rs.

Along with that, certain goods and transactions are exempted from generating e-Way Bills, as per the provisions under rule 138(14) of the Central Goods and Service Tax Act, 2017

The following are the exempted goods:

How to generate an e-way bill?

Before you start creating e-Way bills, you need the following significant documents –

Taxable Invoice / Bill of Supply / Delivery Challan
For road transport – Transporter ID, or Vehicle Number
For ship/air/rail transport – Transporter ID, Transport document number, and date.

STEP 1. Now to create an e-Way bill, you first need to be registered in the common portal.

Keep your GSTIN and registered mobile number handy for the following process.

Go to the e-Way bill portal, and under the Registration option, select e-Way Bill Registration.
In the registration form, submit your GSTIN, displayed captcha, and click on Go.
Some of your information, like your Applicant name, Trade name, Address, Mail ID, and Mobile Number, will be automatically filled in once you enter your GSTIN number and captcha. If these details are incorrect or have changed, you can click ‘Update from GST Common Portal’ to fetch the latest data from the GST Common Portal.
Click on ‘Send OTP’ to receive OTP on your GST-registered mobile number. Enter this OTP and click ‘verify OTP’ to validate it.
Now, create a Username and Password for operating your account on the e-Way Bill System

If you work as a transporter and are not yet registered on the GST portal, you can still complete your registration on the e-Way bill portal.

Simply click on the ‘Registration’ option, choose ‘Enrolment For Transporters,’ and complete the provided form.

STEP 2. Login and Generate New e-Way Bill

Click on Login, enter your Username, Password, and displayed Captcha.
Go to the e-Waybill option and select ‘Generate New’ from the drop-down menu.
It will open up the EWB Entry Form, which consists of Part A and Part B. Majorly, Part A consists of the supply details, whereas Part B consists of transport details.

STEP 3. Select Supply Type and SubType

In Part A the first step is to choose the ‘Supply Type.’: ‘Outward’ if you are supplying goods or ‘Inward’ if you are receiving them. Depending on your selection, the system will display relevant sub-types of transactions for you to choose from.
Next choose the Sub-Type, and the relevant document in the ‘Document Type’ dropdown. Enter the document number and date as shown on your document. Ensure the Document No. is unique for all E-Way Bills, and the Document Date is correct.

STEP 4. Fill Billing Details

Billing Details: For ‘Outward’ transactions, fill in the ‘Bill From’ section, including Name, GSTIN, and Address. If you have additional places of business, you can edit the address in the ‘Dispatch From’ section. For ‘Inward’ transactions, complete the ‘Bill From’ section with Name, GSTIN, State, and Address. These details can be auto-populated if you’ve entered the consignor details in the Supplier Master. If not, you can manually enter the details, including GSTIN as ‘URP’ for ‘Unregistered Person’ if applicable.

STEP 5. Fill Consignee Details

Consignee Details: For ‘Outward’ transactions, provide the consignee’s Name, GSTIN, and Address in the ‘Bill To’ section. These details can be auto-populated if you’ve entered consignee details in the Client Masters. For ‘Inward’ transactions, the system will auto-populate the Name, GSTIN, and address of the recipient based on your user details. You can edit these details if necessary.

STEP 6. Fill Product Details

Product Details: In the ‘Item Details’ section, enter the product details. If you’ve entered the product details in the Product Masters, you can auto-populate them by entering 2-3 characters of the product name. The system will display the related product name.
Fill in the description, HSN, Unit, and Tax rate, which will be auto-filled from the master. Please note that you must include at least one HSN code belonging to goods, as E-Way Bills cannot be generated with only SAC codes (99) for Services.

STEP 7. Fill in Tax Details

Tax Details: Enter the quantity and total taxable value for each product. Tax rates (%) will be auto-populated based on the HSN code. Select the applicable tax rate slab (%) from the dropdown. For the ‘CESS Non Advol Rate,’ enter the tax rate in Rupees instead of a percentage. You can add multiple products by clicking the + button.

STEP 8. Enter Transportation Details

Transportation Details: In this section, enter the transporter’s name, transporter ID, and the approximate distance (in kilometers) the shipment will cover. The system will estimate the motorable distance between the supplier and recipient addresses based on PIN codes entered in ‘Bill From & Bill To.’ You can also manually enter the actual distance, which should not exceed 10% more than the auto-calculated distance. If the source and destination PIN codes are the same, you can enter a distance of up to 100 kilometers.

STEP 9. Entering Part B details

Next comes the Part B of the form.

Please note that Part B of the E-Way Bill contains vehicle details. If, during the E-Way bill creation process, you don’t have all the necessary vehicle details, you can create a Part A slip with the information filled in Part A. Subsequently, the transporter can complete the Part B details based on the Part A slip before starting the journey.

STEP 10. Fill in Vehicle Details

Vehicle Details: Select the mode of transportation (road, rail, air, or ship/road cum ship) and enter the vehicle number and transporter document number and date. If you are moving the goods directly without a transporter, you can enter the vehicle number without transporter details.

STEP 11. Submit form

That’s it! After completing all the necessary details, submit your request. The system will validate your inputs and generate a unique 12-digit E-Way Bill number. Keep in mind that this E-Way Bill is not valid for the movement of goods until Part-B details are added to the form. Once Part-B details are included, the system will display the E-Way Bill’s validity based on the estimated distance, indicating when you can legally move the goods.

The system also offers a convenient feature that allows users to generate multiple E-Way Bills simultaneously, which can be quite useful when you have several bills to create at once.

Note: E-way can be canceled within 24 hours of its generation by the person who generated it. It can also be canceled by the receiver or consignee within 72 hours of its generation. The E-Way can also be canceled if the goods are not transported or transported in a manner that doesn’t match the information provided in the e-Way bill.

However, an E-Way bill cannot be canceled if a proper officer has already verified the said e-Way bill.

To cancel an E-way Bill, follow the given steps:

Go to the ‘e-Waybill’ option, and then select the ‘Cancel’ sub-option. This action will lead you to the cancellation screen.

Enter the 12-digit E-way Bill number in the designated field and click ‘Go.’ The specific E-way Bill associated with that number will be displayed.

To begin, select ‘Reject’ from the sidebar.

Next, choose the date when the E-Way Bill you want to reject was generated and click ‘Submit’.

Note: When you are the other party (recipient or supplier), you have the responsibility to communicate your acceptance or rejection of the goods specified in the E-Way Bill. If you do not communicate your decision within 72 hours from the time the E-Way Bill was generated, it is considered that you have accepted the details.

Blocking and Unblocking Of E-Way Bill Generation

What is the Blocking of the e-Way Bill?

If a GST registered taxpayer has not filed Return 3B for two consecutive months on the GST Common portal, their GSTIN (as a Supplier) will be blocked from generating further E-Way Bills and a pop-up message will appear with ‘ERROR’ every time they attempt to generate the e-Way bill.

Although, you can unblock the same using the following steps:

How to Unblock the e-Way Bill Generation Option?

1. When the taxpayer files Return-3B on the GST Common Portal, the blocked GSTIN will automatically change its status to ‘Unblocked’ within a day in the E-Way Bill system, allowing the taxpayer to resume E-Way Bill generation.

· If the status does not update in the E-Way Bill system, the taxpayer can do it manually by visiting the E-Way Bill portal and selecting the option ‘Search > Update Block Status.’

· Here, enter your GSTIN, complete the CAPTCHA, and click ‘GO.’

· The system will retrieve the filing status from the GST Common Portal, and if the return has been filed, the status in the E-Way Bill system will be updated accordingly.

2. Alternatively, the unblocking process can be initiated by the jurisdictional officer online through the GST Portal. This action is typically taken after considering a manual representation received from the taxpayer.

E-Way Bill Validity – Calculation & Extension

How to calculate e-way bill validity?

The E-Way Bill’s validity period is based on the approximate distance entered during its generation. For every 100 kilometers, one day of validity is granted, and for any part of 100 kilometers, an additional day is added.

For example, if the distance is 440 kilometers, the validity period is 4+1 days.

However, for Over Dimensional Cargo (ODC), the validity is one day for every 20 kilometers and an additional day for any part thereof.

Validity Extension

The validity of the e-Way bill starts with the first entry in Part B.

In road transportation, it’s the vehicle entry, while in rail/air/ship transportation, it’s the first transport document number entry.

A transporter can also extend the validity of the e-Way bill if exceptional circumstances like natural calamities, law and order issues, trans-shipment delays, accidents, etc. prevent the consignment from reaching its destination before the validity expires.

However, only the current transporter has the option of extending the validity.

How to extend validity?

To extend your EWB validity, follow the given steps:

Log into the portal, and under e-Waybill, select ‘Extend Validity’
Enter the desired EWB number and click on ‘Go’

Right below your item details, you’ll find the option with the message ‘Do you wish to get Extension for this EWB?’ Select Yes.
