A pharmaceutical company has encountered an issue where a supplier generated an e-way bill under the incorrect GSTIN for one of their units. This occurred because the supplier mistakenly used the GST number of their second firm, which, although still active, has had its drug licence surrendered. The e-way bill cannot be cancelled as it is over 10 days old, leading to concerns about potential mismatches in tax returns. The user is seeking advice on how to resolve this situation.

Dear Experts, I am working at pharma company. We have two units with different gst numbers. Our supplier generate a invoice in name of our one firm but he generated eway bill in name of our second firm by mistake. Problem is that we already surrendered the drug licence of second firm but gst no. is active. Now we can not cancelled the eway bill b'cs its already 10 days from eway bill generated. So please suggest any solution. I hope you understand my query. Thanks in advance.

eway bill is a procedural matter and goods are already transferred.If the name and address and GSTIN no. is correct on the invoice then youo can take the ITC.
