25 September 2023 My Client is based out of Aurangabad. He has recently started trading activity.

After starting trading activity my client BOUGHT the goods from Thane and coincidentally SOLD the goods in Thane only and in the same premises from where he bought the goods.

So he requested the original seller to BILL to my client and ship to CONSIGNEE and accordingly draw the E Way Bill. Based on the instructions received the original seller did the needful and booked the sale in his books.

Technically, I can do this - BILL to SHIP to as per GST norms.

Now GST officer has during scrutiny asked for the Lorry Receipt for this particular sell. And as the goods were to be delivered to CONSIGNEE in the same building original seller used local transport who allowed to use his vehicle only for the purpose of E Way bill and charged very nominal amount without giving any LR.

My question is how can i SATISFY the query of GST officer as I am not having LR and actual sale has taken place. If there is any other documents which I can share with GST officer in lieu of LR, request to share the same so that I can help my client in closing his GST query.

25 September 2023 Say no lorry transport used, only supplier's vehicle used free delivery.
Get a confirmation letter from the supplier and give it to GST official.
