What is an e-Way Bill?

An e-Way Bill is an electronic document generated for the movement of goods worth more than ₹50,000 in India under the GST regime. It is mandatory for transporting goods across state lines and even within states in some cases.

4. Set the option Enable Goods and Services Tax (GST) to Yes.
5. Enable the option Set/Alter GST Details and press Enter.
6. In the GST Details screen, go to the section e-Way Bill Applicable and select Yes.
7. Set the option Applicable for Intra-state to Yes or No, depending on your business requirements.
8. Specify the threshold limit for e-Way Bill generation, which by default is ₹50,000.
9. Press Ctrl + A to accept and save your settings.

Step 2: e-Way Bill Enablement on the Government Portal

To enable e-Way Bill generation through the GST Government portal, you need to register your business on the portal as well:

1. Visit the official e-Way Bill Portal: ewaybillgst.gov.in.
2. Log in using your GSTIN and associated credentials.
3. Go to the Registration section.
4. Under e-Way Bill Registration, select your state and GSTIN.
5. Fill in the required details such as your mobile number, email address, and business details.
6. Submit the form and verify your registration with an OTP received on your registered mobile number.
7. Once registered, you can start generating e-Way Bills directly from the government portal.

Step 3: Create Tally Prime as a GSP (GST Suvidha Provider)

To streamline the process of e-Way Bill generation and management, you can set up Tally Prime as a GSP. Here’s how:

1. Visit the e-Way Bill Portal: ewaybillgst.gov.in.
2. Log in to your account using your GSTIN.
3. Go to the API Registration section.
4. Select For GSP and click on Register.
5. Choose Tally Solutions Pvt Ltd as your GSP from the dropdown list.
6. Enter your company's required details and submit the registration form.
7. You will receive API credentials that need to be entered into Tally Prime for further e-Way Bill operations.

Step 4: Integrate e-Way Bill in Tally Prime using GSP

Now that Tally Prime is registered as a GSP, you can integrate and automate the e-Way Bill generation:

1. Open Tally Prime and go to the Gateway of Tally.
2. Navigate to Accounts Info > Voucher Types > Sales Vouchers.
3. In the voucher screen, enter details like Party Name, GSTIN, Invoice Number, and Item Details.
4. Once you complete the voucher, Tally Prime will prompt you to generate an e-Way Bill.
5. Click Generate e-Way Bill, and the e-Way Bill will automatically be generated via the government portal using the GSP integration.

Step 5: Generate e-Way Bill for a Transaction

Once you have enabled e-Way Bill functionality and linked Tally as a GSP, you can generate e-Way Bills for all transactions above the threshold limit:

1. In Tally Prime, create a Sales Invoice with all required details such as Item Quantity, Tax, and Transporter Information.
2. After completing the invoice, Tally Prime will show a prompt to Generate e-Way Bill.
3. Select Yes and review the details.
4. If everything is correct, Tally Prime will generate the e-Way Bill and provide you with the e-Way Bill Number for that transaction.
5. You can print or export the e-Way Bill details as needed.
