No E-way bill required for the period February 2018 to March 2018 under the UPGST Act


Quick Summary
The Allahabad High Court has ruled that the requirement for e-way bills under the Uttar Pradesh Goods and Services Tax (UPGST) Act was unenforceable for the period between February 1, 2018, and March 31, 2018. This decision, in the case of M/s. Sunil Traders, means penalties imposed for transporting goods without an e-way bill during this specific timeframe are invalid. The court ordered the setting aside of impugned orders and the refund of any deposited amounts.
