E-WAY BILL IN CASE JOB WORK

[SOPL SOPL]

Dear Sir/Madam

Following is the Scenarios

1.Goods sent by P (registered in Andhra Pradesh) to J (registered in Telangana) for job work

2.Good received after job work by P from J

W.r.t above scenario1,as per Rule 138 of The CGST rules,2017, either of the parties can generate E-way bill.

In E-way bill login, we have following options

1.Outward - Job work

2.Inward - Job work returns

In scenario1 : As per Rule 138,J want to generate generate E-way bill. So which option he has to select.

Note: according to me he can't select inward job work returns as it gives misleading information of the actual transaction that takes place.So residual option i.e others is only available to J.

In scenario 2 : a) If J want to generate E-way. can he select Outward supply Job works or he can also select Others option.

In summary , in whose point of view the above options are given in E-way bill login.

As per my understanding Job work options in E-way bill login are given from the point of view of Principal and not the job worker.

Kindly advise

Thank you

Sir, your understanding is correct. The options are given from the view point of principal.

[KASTURI SETHI]

I agree with Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani Ji. The principal (owner) is responsible for all activities in job-work.

[Karan Bansal]

Yes, the options are given from the viewpoint of the principal.

AI Summary

E-way bill options reflect the principal's viewpoint, influencing how job-workers must classify job-work consignments.
Portal options for e-way bills in job-work cases are presented from the principal's perspective and not the job-worker's; the principal is treated as responsible for job-work activities, so labels like "Outward - Job work" and "Inward - Job work returns" reflect the owner's viewpoint and may not mirror the job-worker's description of the same movement.
