Let's address your queries step by step:
### 1. E-way Bill Requirements for Job Work Scenario:
#### (A) Sending Directly from Supplier to Job Worker:
When goods are sent directly from the supplier to the job worker (under Bill to Ship to arrangement), the following documents are typically required:
- **Supplier Invoice:** Issued by the supplier to their customer (the principal). - **Supplier E-way Bill:** Generated by the supplier for movement of goods from their place to the job worker's place. - **Principal Delivery Challan:** This document should accompany the goods and should detail the movement of goods from the supplier's place to the job worker's place. This delivery challan does not need to be mentioned in the E-way Bill, but it should be with the transporter carrying the goods.
#### (B) Sale from Job Worker to Customer:
When the job worker sends the processed goods to the customer (under Bill from Ship from arrangement), the following documents are generally required:
- **Principal Invoice:** Issued by the principal (who sent goods for job work) to the customer. - **Principal E-way Bill:** Generated by the principal for the movement of goods from the job worker's place to the customer's place. - **Job Worker's Delivery Challan:** This document should accompany the goods during their movement from the job worker's place to the customer. Similar to the principal delivery challan, this delivery challan does not need to be mentioned in the E-way Bill but should be with the transporter.
#### Additional Considerations: - Ensure that the E-way Bills are generated correctly with accurate details of the goods and parties involved. - Delivery challans should be available with the transporter during transit but do not need to be mentioned in the E-way Bill. - Compliance with GST rules regarding job work, invoicing, and E-way Bill requirements is crucial to avoid penalties.
### 2. Additional Place of Business for Job Worker:
If the job worker is registered under GST and operates from a different location than their principal place of business, it's important to ensure compliance with GST regulations:
- **Additional Place of Business:** If the job worker has a fixed establishment (like a factory or workshop) different from their principal place of business, it should be registered separately as an additional place of business under GST. - **Registration Requirements:** The job worker must comply with GST registration rules for all their places of business to avoid any non-compliance issues.
### Conclusion:
Ensure that all E-way Bills, invoices, and delivery challans are prepared and documented correctly according to GST rules. While delivery challans do not need to be mentioned in the E-way Bill, they should accompany the goods during transit. Additionally, if the job worker operates from a different location, ensure proper registration of that place of business under GST to comply with regulatory requirements.
