The electronic way bill or e-way bill for movement of goods between states will be implemented from April 1st, 2018, as decided at the 26th GST Council meeting. However, for intra-state movement, the e-way bill would be rolled out in a phased manner starting April 15th, and will cover all the states by June 1st. For this purpose, the GST Council 26th meeting saw a roll-out model being proposed, wherein the country will be divided into 4 zones and each week, one zone will get added to e-way bill, so that a full e-way bill state-wise roll-out may be attempted within May itself, as per the latest e-way bill news.
However, given the confusion that reigned, due to the e-way bill being deferred initially, followed by a failed roll-out on February 1st, many State governments already issued e-way bill state-wise notifications, with respect to the applicability of the e-way bill on intra-State movement of goods. While, the expectation is, that 1st April will be the default date for inter-State e-way bill across the country, the dates for intra-State still vary, with some states yet to notify the dates.
For instance, in terms of e-way bill, Karnataka is one of the states which has clearly streamlined the process of registering for and generating a Karnataka e-way bill. All one needs to do is log on to www.gst.kar.nic.in , and the business will be redirected to the national e-way bill portal, where they may take it forward.
Given below is a list of e-way bill state-wise notifications and dates for the benefits of businesses and transporters:
