Generation of e-way bill in case of purchase return

I (FROM NASIK, MAHARASHTRA) have purchased goods in month of Jan 2018 from the supplier from NOIDA, UP of Rs. 103427/- (incl. GST @ 18%). Now, I have to return the goods in Feb 2018. Is there Compulsory to Generate E-Way Bill while Returning the goods to the Inter-State Supplier ??

If yes, then please guide about the E-Way Bill on Purchase Returns & Its process on E-Way Bill portal.
