What is Eway Bill for Job Work

A job work is essentially the outsourcing of a portion of the manufacturing process to a third-party vendor/contractor. This means that a part of the manufactured goods are transported from the premises of the principal (the entity that assigns the task to the third-party) to that of the job worker (the entity who takes the task and is responsible for getting the job done. Often, such consignments have to cross state borders to reach the final destination. In such scenarios, the generation of an Eway bill is necessary.

 

There are four scenarios under which either of the concerned parties may be required to generate an Eway bill for job work. They are as follows.

  • The principal sending the goods to the job worker

  • The job worker directly sending the goods to the principal after completing the work

  • The job worker sending the inputs back to the principal after job completion

  • Finished goods directly being supplied to the end customer post job completion

     

Let us now take a look at these scenarios in detail and determine who is required to generate an eway bill in each of those cases.

Inputs Sent by Principal to a Job Worker or Vice-Versa

If the outsourcer is sending the goods to a job worker located in a different state, the former will compulsorily have to generate the eway bill for job work as per the standard procedure. Even if the value of the goods is under ₹50,000, the outsourcer will need to generate an Eway bill for job work.

Inputs Received by the Principal Post Job Work Completion

Once the task is completed by the job worker, the outsourcer tends to call back for the goods to their premises. Alternatively, they can ask the job worker to supply them directly to the end customers. If the job worker has an Eway Bill Portal ID, they will need to generate the eway bill to get them to the marketplace. If not, the outsourcer will need to generate the eway bill for job work.

Finished Goods Supplied Directly to the Customer From the Job Worker

When the finished goods are supplied directly from the premises of the job worker to the end-user, it is mandatory that:

  1. The job worker must be registered under section 25 of the GST Act, or;

  2. The outsourcer must declare that the place of the job worker is his alternative place of business.

     

In case the job workers have got themselves registered on the E Way Bill Portal, they must generate the eway bill for job work themselves. If not, the outsourcer must generate the e way bill for the job work.

Supplier of the Principal Sending the Goods to the Job Worker

In such a scenario, the supplier of the principal will have to generate an Eway bill for job work.
