GST e-way bill was off to a successful start with more than five lakh e-way bills generated till 7 pm on the first working day of its implementation. The roll-out of e-way bill without any glitches came as a relief to businesses who were fearing disruption to trade.
With the successful rollout of e-way bill—an electronic documentation of movement of goods—a key anti-evasion measure under goods and services tax is now in place. The government is hoping that this will help in improving tax revenues under GST.
