Distance (even below 1 km or 500 meters) DOES NOT exempt you from generating an e-way bill.

Always generate:

  • E-way bill if value > ₹50,000, regardless of distance

  • Even for 500 meters movement

You can refer:

 

  • Rule 138 of CGST Rules, 2017

  • Notification No. 12/2018 – Central Tax

  • GST FAQs on e-way bill

These clarify:

  • No blanket exemption based on distance

  • Only procedural relaxation for vehicle details in certain cases

The goods movement was within 500 meters and duly supported by valid tax invoices with GST discharged. Non-generation of e-way bill was due to a bonafide belief regarding short-distance exemption and without any intention to evade tax. We request lenient view and waiver of penalty.
