What is Transporter ID?
Transporter ID is a 15-digit special recognizable ID number assigned to an unregistered Transporter enabling generation of e-Way Bills.
Why is transporter ID required?
Transporters need to create the e-way charge if –
A) Value of dispatch is more than Rs. 50,000
or
B) Value of all goods moving through a solitary vehicle is more than Rs. 50,000
Indeed, even the unregistered transporters under GST need to take note of that e-Way Bills are required to be created by them under the above conditions.
Since an unregistered Transporters won't have a GSTIN, the idea of Transporter ID had been presented.
Where and when to utilize the Transporter ID?
Unregistered Transporters need to specify this ID on each e-Way Bill set up of GSTIN.
Transporters give this number to the providers/dispatcher to specify it on the e-way charges produced by them which thus empowers the transporter to refresh the vehicle number later for developments of products.
