Eway bill requirement in case of retail sale of EV scooter

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

For retail sales of electric scooters where customers collect their vehicles directly from the showroom, an e-way bill is generally not required. This exemption applies because the goods are not being transported by a dealer or transporter after the sale; instead, the customer takes possession and moves the vehicle themselves. While there isn't a specific GST notification exempting all vehicles, the nature of these 'counter sales' means the movement of goods is handled by the buyer, negating the need for an e-way bill.

29 October 2025 For such "counter sales" (customer collects vehicle at the point of sale), the current consensus and guidance is that an e-way bill is not mandatory.

29 October 2025 The exemption for e-way bill in showroom counter sales is based on the principle that the goods do not move from showroom via a transporter or dealer to another place after sale; instead, the customer assumes possession and moves it themselves.

No explicit GST notification exempts all vehicles from e-way bill requirements; rather, the transaction type (counter sale at showroom) and lack of dealer-organized movement drive the exemption.
