Billing a same party 4 bills in a day in inter-state sales. Individually the value of bills doesn't crosses 50,000. But in aggregate the value crosses the limit of Rs. 50,000.
Is E-way bill required in this case?

Transporter has to generate e way bill then
If multiple invoices are issued by the supplier to recipient, that is, for movement of goods of more than one invoice of same consignor and consignee, multiple EWBs have to be generated. That is, for each invoice, one EWB has to be generated, irrespective of the fact whether same or different consignors or consignees are involved. Multiple invoices cannot be clubbed to generate one EWB. However after generating all these EWBs, one Consolidated EWB can be prepared for transportation purpose, if goods are going in one vehicle.

Further........


 Rule (1) of Rule 138 of the CGST Rules require that every registered person who causes movement of goods of consignment value exceeding fifty thousand Rupees is required to generate E-Way bill. Hence, as per this rule, the e-way bill may not be required to be generated if the value of consignment is less than Rs. 50,000/-

Further, sub-rule 7 provides that where consignor or consignee has not generated E-way bill in accordance with provisions of sub-rule (1) and the value of goods carried in the conveyance is more than Rs. 50,000 Thousand Rupees, the transporter shall generate E-Way bill based on the invoice/delivery challan/bill of supply. A plain reading of this sub-rule gives an indication that the E-Way bill is required in case value of consignment in the conveyance exceeds Rs. 50000, even though individual values may be less than Rs. 50,000/-.

However, if one carefully analyse sub-rule 7, it gets attracted only when a consignor/consignee who was required to generate the E-way bill having a value of consignment exceeding Rs. 50,000/- but has not generated (fails to generate) the same. If this view is taken, the e-way bill may not be required for consignment value less than Rs. 50,000/- even if the total value of goods in the conveyance exceeds Rs. 50,000/-.

e.g. if there are 51 consignments of Rs. 1,000 each by different consignors in a truck, the value of all individual consignments is less than Rs. 50,000/- then as per Sub Rule (1) – there is no need to generate E-way bill. If sub-rule 7 is interpreted in such manner that total value of all consignments to be considered, then transporter has to generate the e-way bill for all consignments (of the very small value of Rs. 1,000 each) which may not be the intention of the legislator. It is expected that suitable clarification will be issued by the government to clarify the same to ensure consistent practice across the country.

Good Evening Members.

Please suggest for a case, where goods have been delivered through various challans. In each challan, value of goods is less than Rs. 50,000.00. A bill is generated, in the weekend, for the goods delivered in the week through all the challans. The invoice value becomes more than Rs. 50,000.00. Whether E-way bill needs to be generated in this case? The delivery address is 4-5 kms and the goods are delivered through tempo of the seller.

Thanks 
 

whether the value of goods transported in the conveyance exceeded 50000 for a single transportation ??? if yes then required......

Thanks Shukla Sir.

The value of goods transported is less than Rs. 50000/- in each challan. But the invoice value well exceeds Rs. 50,000.00. In GSTR-1, we fill the invoice value. Can there a problem for the taxpayer as no e-way bill is being generated for these?
