When E-Way Bills Are Required
E-Way Bills apply to inter-state and intra-state movements over the threshold set by GST authorities.
- Value threshold: Typically ₹50,000 per invoice.
- Movement types: Supply, job work, or transfer between branches.
- Transport modes: Road, rail, air, or ship.
Always verify state-specific rules for intra-state movement, as some states apply lower thresholds.
