As per my personal opinion, as per 138 of cgst Act it is required to issue e way bill by Transporter, but presently rule 138(7) is stayed by government. so its not required E way bill. If your sender/receiver is Register then you can also ask to issue e-way bill. If transpoter is Register then issue e way bill self.
it is my personal opinion, if anybody have different view then views are welcome. Disclaimer: it is not Professional Advice. It is only for educational purposes.
Nahi koi eway bill nahi banana hai , even the consolidated eway bill also not mandatory , as clause 7 of rule 138 is not notify in notification 15/2018 CT (r)
