E way Bill

E way bill is short for Electronic Way Bill. GST E-way bill is a document used to track goods in transit introduced under the Goods and Service Tax. A taxable person registered under GST involved in the transportation of goods with a value of over Rs.50,000 must possess an E-way bill generated on the GST Portal.

LEDGERS have made E-way bill generation and management very simple for business. The Ledgers E-way bill tool is synced to GST invoices, bills of supply, purchases invoices, and customer or supplier accounts.

E-E-Way Bill can be generated seamlessly at the click of a button and shared with the customers or suppliers. The procedure for moving the movements of goods is prescribed in the E-way bill rules. However, it is to be noted that when the GST Act came into being on the 1st of July, the E-way bill implementation was deferred.

The following cases wherein a person having GST registration are causing goods movement should generate an E-way bill.

  • E-Way bill generation is done when there is a movement of goods of more than Rs.50,000 value to or from a registered person. The registered person can even generate an E-way bill if the goods’ valuation is less than Rs.50,000.
  • An unregistered person is also required to generate an E-way bill. When an unregistered person makes a supply to a registered person, the receiver must ensure that all the compliances are complied with.
  • A transporter carrying goods via road, air, rail, etc., is required to generate an E-way bill if the supplier has not generated any E-way Bill.
