In this situation, the assessee can explain the nature of their purchases and the mode of transport used for local transactions. The key points to highlight are:
Local Purchases via Rickshaw/E-Rickshaw: Since the purchases are local and transported through non-motorized vehicles (cycle rickshaw) or small electric vehicles (e-rickshaw), which are generally not subject to e-way bill requirements for transport within the same state, the purchases do not necessitate an e-way bill.
E-Way Bill Exemption for Certain Goods and Modes of Transport: As per GST rules, certain goods and specific conditions allow for exemptions from generating e-way bills. For example, if the value of goods does not exceed the threshold limit (usually Rs. 50,000 for intra-state transport), then an e-way bill may not be required. Additionally, non-motorized conveyances are exempt from e-way bill requirements.
Interstate Sales Requiring E-Way Bills: The higher number of e-way bills generated relates to interstate sales, which mandate e-way bill generation for goods above the threshold limit, irrespective of the mode of transport.
