GST Website crashes,Govt defers implentation of e-way bill

NewDelhi Feb 3: In a Major roadblock for the Government the web portal designed for generating e-way bills for transporting goods under GST had crashed on the Feb 1 on the first day it was implemented.

The government had later said that "the trial date of implementation of E-way bills has been extended and the further date would be notified later".

Currently, E-way bill is a document generated online which allows goods to be transported from one state to other and any goods worth more than Rs 50,000 require E-way bill. The center and nearly 13 states have agreed to implement on the same day but now states are waiting from the center for further guidelines.

Currently, many trucks have been stuck on the highways because of the crash of the server and have expressed their anger against the government for implementing such rules without proper testing.

Earlier the government had initiated a trial period from Jan 15 -31 but the server was crashed on Feb 1 as many traders across the country logged in to generate e-way bills.
