The e-way bill, which would be required to be presented to a GST inspector if asked for, is being touted as an anti-evasion measure and would help boost tax collections by clamping down on trade that currently happens on cash basis.

Deloitte India Partner M S Mani said the declining mop up would lead to several anti-evasion measures over and above the imminent e-way bill launch.
"We should now expect the relaunch of reverse charge on transactions with unregistered dealers, invoice matching, more return scrutiny etc," Mani added.
Meanwhile, the ministry tweeted that its followers on twitter has crossed one million mark. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
