When sending printing machinery from Mumbai to Ahmedabad for repairs, you don't need a Tax Invoice as it's not a sale. Instead, you must create a Delivery Challan and an E-Way Bill. The Delivery Challan, made in triplicate, should detail the machinery, GSTINs, and clearly state it's for repair purposes with no GST charged. This ensures legal transport of the goods.

To transport your printing machinery from Mumbai to Ahmedabad for repairing purposes, you must not issue a Tax Invoice, as this movement is for repairs and does not constitute a "supply" or sale under GST. You must generate a Delivery Challan and an E-Way Bill to legally transport the machinery across state lines.
