In this blog, we have been discussed about the Part B of E Way Bill, without which E Way Bill incomplete due to following reason:

1. The validity of the e-way bill starts when first entry is made in Part-B i.e. vehicle entry is made first time in case of road transportation or first transport document number entry in case of rail/air/ship transportation, whichever is the first entry. It may be noted that validity is not re-calculated for subsequent entries in Part-B.

2. E-Way bill is complete only when Part-B is entered. Otherwise printout of EWB would be invalid for movement of goods. Filling up of Part-B of the e-way bill is a must for movement of the goods, except for within the same state movement between consignor place to transporter place, if distance is less than 50 Kms.

3. The e-way bill for transportation of goods should always have the vehicle number that is actually carrying the goods. There may be requirement to change the vehicle number after generating the e-way bill or after commencement of movement of goods, due to trans-shipment or due to breakdown of vehicle. In such cases, the transporter or generator of the e-way bill can update the new vehicle number in Part B of the EWB.

When this option can be used

This option can be used to update the vehicle number of the e-Way Bill, if it has not been entered while generating e-Way Bill or vehicle has been changed for moved goods because of various reasons like transit movement, vehicle breakdown etc.

Who will Update

The present transporter is enabled to update the Part-B. If the transporter has not been assigned to the e-way bill, the generator can update the Part-B.
