Facts
Movement of goods for repair, on approval or for testing is not a sale. It is done on a delivery challan, and an e-way bill is needed if the value crosses the limit.
Provisions and law
- Rule 55, CGST Rules 2017Delivery challan is used for movement of goods without a sale, such as job work or goods on approval
- Rule 138, CGST Rules 2017E-way bill in EWB-01 is required for movement of goods of consignment value above Rs 50,000, with Part A and Part B
Analysis
Example: a factory sends a Rs 3 lakh motor from Faridabad to Delhi for repair. It issues a delivery challan with the reason and generates an e-way bill with sub-type 'Others' or the relevant option. On return, the repairer issues an invoice for repair charges and an e-way bill for the return movement if needed. Keep both challans linked.
Conclusion
- Issue a delivery challan stating the purpose
- Generate the e-way bill if value crosses the limit
- Track the goods and the return date
- Generate an e-way bill for the return movement
