Statewise intra state E Way Bill Time Lines

E Way Bill System was made mandatory for interstate movement of goods from 1^st February 2018 and for intra state from 1^st June 2018. However the system could not hold the load of the numerous E Way Bills generation and crashed on the very 1^st day and forcing government to extend the trail run period.

Now in the 2^nd innings, E Way Bill is mandatory for all interstate movement of goods from 1^st April 2018 while E Way Bill for intra state movement shall be aligned in a phased manner until 1^st June 2018.

This time, the launch date being a holiday, no major hiccups were noted and there was a smooth launch of the E Way Bill. The real test starts today (2^nd April 2018).

As per the press release dated 1^st April 2018, a total of 10,96,905 taxpayers have registered on e-Way Bill Portal till date. And 19,796 transporters, who are not registered under GST, have enrolled themselves on the e-Way Bill Portal. 1,71,503 e-waybills have been successfully generated on the portal from 00:00 hours till 17:00 hrs of 1st April, 2018.

However there is a lot of confusion surrounding the generating and carrying E Way Bills for transportation of goods inside the states and this has left many suppliers and transporters in soup.

It may be noted that no state other than Karnataka has notified E Way Bill for intra state from 1^st April 2018. Hence E Way bill is required only for Interstate movement of goods from 1^st April 2018, until further notification by the respective states.

Here, I have listed the notifications issued by various State Governments on the applicability of E Way Bills from 1^st April 2018:
