India’s E-way bill generation under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) in June this year increased by 14.5% to 136.77 million from 119.46 million in the same month last year. Sequentially, e-way bill generation rose by 0.5% from 136.08 million in the previous month. E-way bills are mandatory for transporting consignments valued over Rs 50,000 and serve as a key indicator of trade activity, supply chain movement, and GST compliance.
The robust E-way bill numbers for June indicate sustained goods movement and steady GST compliance. The figures suggest that domestic trade activity remains strong, reflecting the economy’s formalization trend. The updated E-Way Bill regulations by the GST Council aim to enhance the bill system’s efficiency and prevent malpractices like fake billing and ITC fraud.
The government’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) revenue surged by 13.9% to Rs 1.95 lakh crore in June 2026, marking the highest growth rate in 13 months. Net GST collections, after refunds, increased by 11.2% to Rs 1.62 lakh crore from Rs 1.46 lakh crore in June 2025. The growth was mainly driven by a 34.6% rise in GST revenues from imports and a 6.5% increase in GST collections from domestic transactions.
In the April-June FY27 period, gross GST collections reached Rs 6.32 lakh crore, up by 8.4% compared to the previous financial year. Domestic GST collections amounted to Rs 4.54 lakh crore, while GST revenue from imports grew by 26.2% to Rs 1.77 lakh crore. Net GST collections for the period totaled Rs 5.40 lakh crore after refunds of Rs 91,482 crore.
