A law released by the Central Government on 7 March 2018 states that beginning on 1 April 2018, the National E-Way Bill system would include transferring goods across borders or among states.
Thus, dealers must create an E-way Bill on the E-waybill portal for Interstate transportation of products. E-way bill in Jharkhand is already operational from 01-Apr-2018 for any movement out of the state.
Objective of E-way bill in Jharkhand
Jharkhand is home to a sizable amount of mining, manufacturing, and trading activities that significantly contribute to the nation’s economic development.
Jharkhand had a system for tracing the transportation of products before the introduction of the GST and the E-way Bill. A permit in Form Sugam G/ Sugam P/ Sugam B was made applicable for any transfer of taxable items interstate or intrastate, as well as for returns.
Transporting goods worth more than INR 50,000 inside or outside of a State will now require an electronic-way bill (or e-way Bill) through prior online registration of the consignment under GST.
After the supplier and the transporter enter the data on the GST site to generate an e-way bill, the recipient, the supplier, and the transporter will all have access to a specific e-way bill number on the common portal.
The goal of presenting the e-Way Bill is to satisfy the expectations and worries of the stakeholders satisfactorily
Who are the stakeholders while generating an e-way bill?
The e-Way Bill’s four main stakeholders are as follows:
Suppliers
