II. What is an e-Way Bill?
An e-Way Bill is a mandatory document under GST, used for tracking the movement of goods exceeding ?50,000 in value. It ensures transparency and prevents tax evasion during transportation. The e-Way Bill system integrates with GST, enabling businesses to comply with regulations, ensuring smoother logistics and accurate tax reporting.
III. Challenges in Traditional e-Way Bill Management
Manual entry errors occur when information is inputted incorrectly due to human oversight or misinterpretation. These errors can lead to discrepancies in e-Way Bills, such as incorrect tax amounts, wrong HSN codes, or invalid transport details. Such mistakes can cause delays, compliance issues, and penalties during GST audits.
Time-consuming processes in e-Way Bill management often involve manual data entry, verification, and corrections, especially when generating multiple bills or reconciling discrepancies. These tasks can be prone to errors, require significant administrative effort, and delay shipment processes, ultimately increasing the workload for businesses and compromising compliance timelines.
Without real-time updates and integration with GSTN, businesses face delays in validating e-Way Bills and GST returns. This leads to discrepancies in data, increased chances of errors, and delayed compliance. Manual tracking can also result in missing crucial updates, impacting the overall efficiency of GST filing and e-Way Bill management.
