Tally Solutions |Updated on: August 24, 2021

1. Multiple Vehicle Option for E-Way Bill

The option to process E-way bill for multiple vehicles has been introduced at E-way bill portal wherein the consignment of one e-way bill has to be moved in multiple vehicles, after moving to transhipment place.

Let's take up an example for our understanding: An e-way bill is generated and needs to be moved from A to C. Point A to B, the consignment moves via Rail or bigger vehicle.

Conditions: It is not possible to move the consignment from B to C in the same mode of transportation due to unavailability of that mode where big vehicles cannot be used. In such cases, the consignment needs to be moved in multiple smaller vehicles.

2. Process of E-Way Bill With Multiple Vehicles on E-Way Bill Portal

Step 1 :	First generate the e-way bill with source and destination as per the document/invoice.
Step 2 :	Carry out the first leg of movement of the consignment up to the transhipment.
Step 3 :	Choose the ‘Change to Multi-vehicle’ option and update the e-way bill for multi-vehicle movement. At this stage, a total quantity of the consignment and movement from and to place for the multiple vehicles requirement has to be entered
Step 4 :	After transporting the consignment to the smaller vehicle, update the ‘Part-B’ of the e-way bill with the vehicle number, along with the quantity loaded, and move the consignment.
Step 5 :	Step No 4 may be repeated until the total quantity is loaded and moved. E-Way bill portal will now not allow the quantity to be shipped in multiple vehicles more than what has been declared while marking the e-way bill for multi-vehicle.
