📃 What is the need for registration on the e-way bill portal?

Registration on the e-way bill (EWB) portal is essential for businesses involved in the transportation of goods under GST. Here’s why:

1. Mandatory for Compliance: Any registered taxpayer under GST who transports goods worth more than ₹50,000 (interstate or intrastate) must generate an e-way bill to comply with GST regulations.
2. Seamless Movement of Goods: The e-way bill helps ensure the legal and smooth movement of goods across states, reducing the risk of penalties during transit.
3. Verification of Goods: E-way bills serve as proof of tax compliance, helping authorities verify that goods are moving with proper documentation.
4. Tracking and Accountability: Registered taxpayers can track the movement of goods, ensuring transparency in logistics and accountability within the supply chain.

Thus, registration on the EWB portal is mandatory for GST-registered businesses to generate e-way bills, comply with GST regulations, and avoid penalties during the transportation of goods.
