The National Informatics Centre (NIC) recently made changes to the e-way bill system that benefit enrolled transporters and regular enrolled taxpayers greatly. For those who are no longer interested in using the system, the option for transporters to de-register themselves offers convenience and flexibility. Additionally, the option to end common enrollment gives taxpayers who no longer want to do so a way out.
The security of e-way bill login access is further strengthened by the implementation of a two-factor authentication system, guaranteeing the protection of user accounts and data. All involved stakeholders should experience the e-way bill process more efficiently thanks to these improvements.
Transporters who have enrolled in the e-way bill Portal based on their PAN can now choose to de-register from the system if they decide they no longer want to use it. Their access to the e-way bill portal will be terminated once they have been de-registered. For transporters who want to opt out of the e-way bill system, this facility offers flexibility.
When a Transporter ID is de-registered, it can no longer be used to create e-way bills and its Part-B information cannot be changed.
The common enrollment ID can now be canceled by taxpayers who previously chose common enrollment but no longer wish to use it. If a taxpayer has a good reason, they can use this feature to de-register from common enrollment.
The common enrollment ID cannot be used to update transporter information once it has been canceled. However, for the e-way bills that already had the common enrollment ID assigned before the cancellation, the Part-B details can still be updated.
After canceling the common enrollment, a one-month window is given. After this time, the user's login will be disabled and no more e-way bill system activity will be permitted. To generate e-way bills, the user can log in once more with their GSTIN credentials.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) has been activated to increase the security of e-way bill login access. 2FA is initially optional, but after a few weeks it will be required. Users who use a single credential to access the e-way bill system from multiple locations are advised to quickly create sub-users.
These new features of e-way bill aim to simplify the e-way bill process and enhance the user experience for all stakeholders involved. By incorporating these new features, the e-way bill system continues to evolve and adapt to the needs of users, contributing to a more efficient and secure electronic waybill management system.
