An E-Way bill is a mandatory document required for the movement of goods in a vehicle/conveyance where the value of the goods exceeds Rs. 50,000.
This way bill has to be generated for both inter-state or intra-state movement. However, for intra state movement, the threshold limit of Rs. 50,000 differs from state to state.
For the State of Rajasthan, the existing limit for generation of the E-Way bill limit is Rs. 1 Lakh where the movement of goods commences and terminates within the State of Rajasthan without crossing the boundaries of the State of Rajasthan.
This limit shall apply in case of all goods except all types of Tobacco and its Products and Pan Masala.
