E-way bills, never missed.
Traqo generates, tracks, and extends e-way bills automatically — integrating directly with the NIC portal so your team never has to log in manually. Every active EWB is monitored against vehicle location and expiry, with proactive alerts ensuring zero compliance lapses.

Target audience
This documentation serves three tiers of users.
Evaluating Traqo's E-Way Bill automation to understand capabilities, compliance coverage, and ROI before purchasing.
Responsible for NIC API setup, GSTIN configuration, ERP integration, and user permission configuration during onboarding.
Logistics coordinators, dispatch teams, and finance staff who generate, extend, cancel, and reconcile E-Way Bills day-to-day.
Why manual EWB management fails at scale
Manual E-Way Bill generation through the NIC portal is time-consuming and error-prone for high-volume manufacturers.
Logging into the NIC portal for each shipment creates queues at dispatch — vehicles wait while staff generate EWBs one by one.
Manual entry leads to errors in GSTIN, HSN codes, and PIN codes — each error blocks generation and delays the vehicle.
Tracking EWB expiry across hundreds of active shipments in different states is impossible manually — lapses result in detention and fines.
Vehicle breakdowns require immediate vehicle number updates on the NIC portal — dispatchers must interrupt their workflow to log in and update.
Matching invoices, dispatch records, and E-Way Bills manually consumes significant finance team time and produces audit risk.
Penalties for non-compliance
Non-compliance with E-Way Bill requirements carries significant financial and operational penalties under GST law.
| Violation | Penalty |
|---|---|
| Goods movement without E-Way Bill | Penalty of ₹10,000 or tax sought to be evaded, whichever is greater |
| Expired E-Way Bill during transit | Vehicle detention and penalty equal to 200% of tax payable |
| Incorrect details on E-Way Bill | Seizure of goods and penalty under Section 129 of CGST Act |
| Failure to produce EWB during inspection | Vehicle detention until E-Way Bill is produced or penalty paid |
