Summary:
Nagpur: Considering the problems faced traders in dealing with e-way bill under GST, the state’s finance minister Sudhir Mungantiwar said that e-way should be removed from the system of GST. E-way bill is a document which confirms that the goods are being transported from one point to another. Currently, each state has its own rules on e-way bill which defeats the very purpose of ‘one nation one tax’ under GST, he said. “Maharashtra has increased the limit for carrying e-way bills to goods worth Rs1 lakh as against Rs50,000 from July 1. It may be mentioned that earlier too, the state was not keen on having e-way bills at all but did introduce it in order to come in tune with the GST regime..
