@ Coimbatore/Tirupur: Industrialists have welcomed the Tamil Nadu government’s decision to exempt consignment with value of goods not exceeding Rs 1 lakh and a list of notified goods from e-way bill within the state.
While the interstate e-way bill was implemented from April 1 across the country, intrastate e-way bill is in place only in 27 states and Union territories. Eight states, including Tamil Nadu, will implement intrastate e-way bill from Saturday.
On Thursday, the state government issued a notification stating that no e-way bill is required to be generated for the transport of consignment with value of goods not exceeding Rs 1 lakh and a list of goods notified by it.
Agriculture implements like cultivators, ploughs, cutters, solar power pump sets; food products like appalam, pappad, vathal; fresh fruits and vegetables; textile products like hank yarns; and job work and services related to yarn, fabric and garments are among the items exempted from the e-way bill.
