Penalty under section 129 for alleged e-way bill reuse requires cogent, positive evidence of prior transportation or delivery of the same goods; extended document validity and the driver's statement on loading date, without independent corroboration, are insufficient. Matching quantities and descriptions in tax invoices and valid e-way bills supported the recorded movement, while omission of the dispatching premises' GSTIN did not establish unaccounted goods or a fictitious transaction.

The order setting aside the penalty remained in force and the departmental appeal failed.
