Question and options

Ordinary cargo, not over-dimensional, is to move 750 km by road. Under rule 138(10) of the CGST Rules, 2017, for how long is the e-way bill valid?

  1. 3 days

  2. 5 days

  3. 4 days

  4. 8 days

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - 4 days

Rule 138(10) of the CGST Rules gives an e-way bill for ordinary cargo one day for the first 200 km and one more day for every further 200 km or part, so 750 km needs four days. Eight days would follow from the earlier 100-km-a-day rule, replaced from 1 January 2021.
