Pre-movement e-way bill compliance makes post-interception documents ineffective, supporting detention and penalty for undocumented goods in transit.
Case-Laws
GST
Pre-movement e-way bill compliance requires the e-way bill to be generated before goods begin moving, with the tax invoice and e-way bill carried by the person in charge. Generating those documents only after interception does not cure transportation undertaken without them. Their absence at interception creates a rebuttable presumption of intent to evade tax, which may be displaced only by a reasonable explanation. The explanation did not rebut that presumption, and the detention-related penalty under section 129 was sustained.
