Detention of goods for alleged reuse of an e-way bill requires cogent evidence that the same goods had completed an earlier journey and that the e-way bill was reused. Where goods are accompanied by an invoice, e-invoice and e-way bill, with no discrepancy in description, quantity, value or ownership, an earlier vehicle verification or location alone cannot establish re-transportation.

On these facts, the detention and penalty proceedings were set aside, and refund of the deposited amount was directed in accordance with law.
