E-way Bill Required for Consignments Over 50,000; Consolidated Bill Option Available for Multiple Shipments An e-way bill is mandatory for consignments exceeding 50,000. If multiple invoices under 50,000 are transported together, an e-way bill is necessary for each, with an option for a consolidated bill. E-way bills are also required for interstate transport to job workers or for handicrafts, regardless of value. Taxpayers can voluntarily generate e-way bills for consignments below 50,000. Unregistered persons can generate e-way bills after enrolling, and registered buyers must generate them for purchases from unregistered sellers. Exempted goods do not require an e-way bill unless discrepancies arise. Non-compliance can lead to vehicle detention and penalties. (AI Summary)
