Raising of ewaybill

478 views 1 replies

There are 2 companies - one is say   X Pvt Ltd and the other Y  (Y is a proprietorship firm) . A director of the Pvt Ltd company is the proprietor of Y . Both are GST registered. The Pvt Ltd company has a seperate godown and the godown address is also showing in its GST certificate. The proprietorship company does not have any seperate godown . Now when the proprietorship company Y is directly purchasing goods from supplier (supplier raises invoice on Y) , and the goods are directly despatched by the supplier from supplier's godown to Y's client ( and Y raises tax invoice on its client) - in this case will Y have to generate ewaybill ? And if yes then which one should be the  " Despatch From " address ?

Great question, Adhip! Here's how it works in this scenario:

  • Since the supplier is directly dispatching goods to Y’s client, Y is the recipient of goods but not the consignor moving goods themselves.

  • Who needs to generate the e-way bill?
    Typically, the person causing the movement of goods (usually the supplier) or the recipient needs to generate the e-way bill.

  • In this case:

    • The supplier will generate the e-way bill since goods move from the supplier’s place to Y’s client.

    • The "Dispatch From" address on the e-way bill will be the supplier's godown address.

    • The "Delivery To" address will be the client’s address of Y.

  • Does Y need to generate an e-way bill?
    No, since Y is not the one causing the movement of goods or physically transporting goods; the supplier is doing that directly.

  • However, Y should ensure that the supplier has generated the e-way bill correctly, and Y records it properly for GST compliance.

Summary:
Supplier generates the e-way bill, Dispatch From = supplier’s godown, Delivery To = Y’s client.

If Y was transporting goods themselves from the supplier or from their own godown, then Y would have to generate the e-way bill with their dispatch address.
