As you already know, for every consignment with a value exceeding ₹ 50,000, the person in charge of the conveyance/vehicle must carry an e-way bill. However, in certain circumstances, the end consumer may also have to generate an e-way bill.
This article brings you all the details you need to know about when end consumers should generate an e-way bill and the steps.
When Should an End Consumer Generate an E-way Bill?
If you are an end consumer of goods, you must generate an e-way bill under the following scenario.
The value of the goods transported to you on a vehicle exceeds Rs. 50,000 (assuming you are unregistered).
In this scenario, you must fill in the vehicle number in Part B of Form GST EWB-01. Suppose the person transporting the goods is an unregistered or ordinary citizen, and he wonders how to generate e way bill for an unregistered person. In that case, he can generate the bill in two ways:
- Request his supplier to generate an e-way bill.
- Log in to the e-way bill for citizens portal and generate his e-way bill.
