Got it — here’s a quick clear guide on way bill (E-way bill) under GST and your concerns:
When does E-way bill liability arise?
E-way bill is mandatory when:
Goods are being transported interstate or intrastate.
The value of goods is more than Rs. 50,000 (per consignment).
Transport is by any mode (road, rail, air, or vessel).
You are a registered GST dealer or transporter moving goods for business purposes.
How to generate E-way bill?
Either the supplier, recipient, or transporter (depending on situation) generates the E-way bill online on the GST portal:
https://ewaybillgst.gov.in
You need to register on the portal and provide details like invoice number, GSTIN of supplier and recipient, vehicle number, etc.
Once generated, the E-way bill number (EBN) is shared with the transporter and the supplier.
What if you can’t generate E-way bill or supplier refuses order without E-way bill?
The supplier’s refusal is valid because legally, movement of goods above Rs. 50,000 requires an E-way bill.
If you are the buyer and registered under GST, you should generate the E-way bill or request the supplier to generate it.
If you are unregistered, usually the supplier or transporter generates it.
Without an E-way bill, transporting goods above the threshold is illegal and can attract penalties and seizure.
If you cannot generate due to technical issues, contact your supplier or GST helpdesk immediately and try to resolve before transport.
Penalties for not having E-way bill?
Penalty of Rs. 10,000 or tax amount, whichever is higher can be imposed.
Goods can be detained or confiscated.
Vehicle can be impounded until documents are produced.
What to do?
Communicate with your supplier clearly.
Check if you or supplier are responsible for generating the E-way bill.
If technical issues, try alternate browsers or devices.
