An E-way bill is a mandatory pass for movement of goods exceeding the value threshold as specified by the government. In India the specified value is 50,000 INR. It is applicable for both interstate and intrastate movement.
The validity of an E-way bill depends upon the distance to be travelled.

- One day is granted for every additional 100 kilometers.
Non Compliance of an E-way bill can lead to penalties & even confiscation of vehicles & goods.
