Tightening the norms for issuance of e-way bill, the GST Network has made it mandatory for businesses and transporters to mention PIN codes of places of loading and unloading of consignments.

Quoting of PIN codes will help in calculating the correct distance and determine the validity of the e-way bill, which is used by businesses to transport goods worth over ₹50,000 both within and outside a State, officials said. So far, businesses and transporters are required to broadly mention the distance and place of loading and unloading of consignments for generating e-way bill.
