<h1>New Circular Reduces Penalties for Minor E-Way Bill Errors Under CGST Act; Ensures Uniform Law Application.</h1> The circular modifies procedures for intercepting conveyances to inspect goods in transit and addresses detention, release, and confiscation issues as per previous circulars. It clarifies that minor discrepancies in e-way bills, such as spelling errors or minor address inaccuracies, should not automatically trigger penalties under section 129 of the CGST Act. Instead, a nominal penalty of Rs. 500 under section 125 of the CGST Act should be imposed for each consignment with such minor errors. Proper officers must report these cases weekly. The circular aims to ensure uniform implementation of the law across jurisdictions.
