Hey! About your query on way bills for small jewellers when transporting goods like 50 grams of jewellery from Bangalore to Andhra Pradesh:
Way Bill Requirement for Jewellery Transport:
Way bills are generally required for movement of goods interstate or intrastate to comply with VAT/GST laws.
Before GST, under VAT rules, many states mandated way bills for movement of taxable goods above a certain value or quantity.
Jewellery is a high-value item and often treated under special rules for excise and VAT.
Specific Points:
Interstate movement:
Since you're moving goods from Bangalore (Karnataka) to Andhra Pradesh, this is interstate transport.
Way Bill under VAT (pre-GST):
Usually, for transporting goods interstate, you must have a C Form or way bill for goods exceeding prescribed limits.
Even if you're a small jeweller, you should carry the proper documents.
Many states require way bills to avoid penalties during transit checks.
Current scenario (GST):
Under GST, interstate movement of goods requires e-way bills if the value exceeds ₹50,000.
For jewellery purchases exceeding this threshold, e-way bill is mandatory.
So, in your case:
If the value of jewellery you are transporting is above the threshold limit (₹50,000 under GST), you must carry an e-way bill.
If it is below the threshold, way bill may not be mandatory but carrying proper documents (invoice, transport bill) is recommended.
It is safer to get the way bill to avoid any legal hassles during transit.
Summary:
Yes, small jewellers should carry way bills or e-way bills (depending on prevailing law) for interstate purchases of jewellery like 50 grams from Bangalore to Andhra Pradesh.
