E-way bill compliance strengthens traceability through Ship-To GSTIN capture, voluntary closure, and disciplined transit controls.
Rule 138 and Rule 138A require pre-movement e-way bill generation, carriage of the prescribed invoice or challan documents, and distance-based validity, with cancellation confined to cases where goods are not transported as declared. The portal advisory adds mandatory Ship-To GSTIN capture in Bill-To/Ship-To transactions and a voluntary post-delivery closure facility, while circular guidance treats transporter godowns as an additional place of business when declared by the recipient. Enforcement under Section 129 and Section 130 distinguishes detention for transit contravention from confiscation linked to intent to evade tax, and minor e-way bill defects are described as technical lapses rather than automatic proof of evasion.
