5 important Updates on E Way Bill | E Way Bill Updates
1) Auto calculation of route distance based on PIN code for generation of EWB:
E-waybill system is now enabled to auto calculate route distance for movement of goods, based on the Postal PIN codes of source and destination locations given by the user. User is allowed to edit the distance shown, but it will be limited to 10% more than the displayed distance. In case, source PIN and destination PIN are same, the user can enter up to a maximum of 100 kms only. If PIN entered is incorrect, the system would alert the user as INVALID PIN CODE, but he can continue entering the distance.
2) Knowing the distance between two PIN Codes:
Taxpayer can now know the distance between source and destination by selecting PIN to PIN distance in Search section on the EWB System home page. Search will show approximate distance between the PINs entered.

EWB system will not allow generation of multiple e- way bills based on one invoice, by any party consignor, consignee or transporter.
