E-WAY BILL IN CASE OF RENTED VEHICLE

[SOPL SOPL]

Dear Sir

We have rented Motor vehicle to client. During this period we have supplied goods to client and client used this rented vehicle for delivery.

Now at the time of generating E-Way bill , Which person Gst number we have to mention in Transporter ID.

Is it Client Gst number since the vehicle is on rental or our Gst number since we are the legal owner of the vehicle as per RTA registration?

Kindly explain in detail.

Transporter ID is optional if you provide vehicle details. Since you have vehicle detail you can skip transporter ID field in EWB.

Sir, Can the GST number be used as a transporter ID in an e-way bill?

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

In my view, yes.

AI Summary

Transporter ID optional on e-way bill; vehicle details suffice and GSTIN may serve as transporter ID.
Transporter ID is optional where complete vehicle details are provided on the e-way bill, permitting omission of the transporter identification field; in rental scenarios, parties may rely on vehicle particulars rather than inserting a separate transporter GSTIN, and some practitioners consider a GSTIN may be used as the transporter ID.
