<h1>E way bill threshold for consignments above a set value; inter state rollout begins with phased intra state implementation.</h1> The GST Council recommended a national e-way bill regime triggered by consignments exceeding a prescribed value for inter State movement with intra State rollout to follow; exempted goods' value is excluded and an intended conveyance aggregate rule was deferred. Responsibility to generate e way bills lies with consignor or consignee, who may authorize transporters or agents to complete PART A; railways are exempted from carrying e way bills but must carry invoices or delivery challans and may withhold delivery without e way bill. The framework includes validity rules, extensions for over dimensional cargo and transhipment, one time conveyance checks across jurisdictions, job work generation rights, PART B distance exceptions, and post commencement generation for certain transport modes.
