The person causing the movement of goods must upload relevant information and generate an e-way bill on the GST portal before transporting the goods. The movement of goods could be for supply or reasons other than supply; an e-way bill is a must according to Rule 138 of CGST Rules.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When was e-Way Billing Introduced?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The e-way bill system for inter-state movement of goods began on April 1, 2018, across India. However, for intra-state goods movement, the e-way bill requirements were determined by individual state governments and implemented at various times in 2018. As a result, an e-way bill is now necessary for both inter-state and intra-state transportation of goods exceeding specific values. While the limit for inter-state movement remains consistent, different states have opted for varying thresholds for intra-state goods transport. We will discuss them in detail in the next section.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Purpose of e-Way Billing<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">e-Way billing was introduced under the GST regime to bring transparency and traceability to the movement of goods.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facilitate faster movement of goods, improving truck turnaround times.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supports the logistics industry by enabling longer distances, reduced travel time, and lowered costs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eliminates wait times at checkposts and speeds up the movement of goods, leading to the most efficient utilisation of vehicles and resources.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensures compliance with GST laws, monitors goods movement, and helps prevent tax evasion from the department\u2019s perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By going back to the basics and understanding <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mybillbook.in\/blog\/what-is-invoicing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">what is invoicing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, one can better appreciate the role of e-way billing in ensuring smooth and compliant goods transportation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">e-Way Bill New Rules 2025 | Latest Notifications\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>e-Invoice Details Mandatory for e-Way Bill Generation<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From 1 March 2024, e-Way generation will not be allowed without <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mybillbook.in\/s\/gst-e-invoice\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">e-invoice<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> details for all applicable taxpayers.
