Penalty for Missing E-Way Bill in Exports: Possible Rs. 25,000, but Waivable if No Tax Evasion. A user inquired about the penalty for not preparing an e-way bill for exported goods, which was raised during a GST audit. The goods were not intercepted and reached their destination. Responses varied: one suggested a general penalty of Rs. 50,000, while another argued no penalty should apply since it was an export transaction with no tax evasion. Another response mentioned a possible penalty of up to Rs. 25,000 under the IGST Act, but noted it was not mandatory and could be reduced or waived, especially if no taxes were involved. (AI Summary)
