E-Way Bills

What is an E-Way Bill?.

In the GST regime, an E-way bill is an electronically generated document necessary for the movement of goods within the state or outside the state. An E-Way bill replaces the waybill, which was a physical document, used in the previous VAT system.

An E-way bill has two parts: Part A and Part B. Part A contains the details of a consignor, consignee, supply type, product details and transport mode and Part B contains details of the transporter.

If you’re initiating the movement of goods and transporting the goods by yourself, you have to furnish both Part A and B details. If you have outsourced the transportation of the goods, then the transporter must furnish Part B details. A consignor or the sender can also authorise a consignee such as buyer, transporter, courier agency and e-commerce operator to fill PART-A of the E-Way bill on his behalf.
