With this, the total number of states implementing e-way bills for intra-state movement of goods would rise to 12.
Earlier, encouraged by the success of its inter-state implementation, the e-Way bill system for intra-state movement of goods was implemented for Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Kerala from April 15.
In Karnataka, it was implemented along with nationwide inter-state implementation on April 1.
"E-way bills are getting generated successfully. Till April 17, more than 1.33 crore e-way bills have been successfully generated which include more than six lakh e-way bills which have been generated for intra-atate movement of goods from April 15 to 17," the statement said.
"It is hereby informed that e-bay bill system for intra-state movement of goods would be implemented from April 20 in Bihar, Jharkhand, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Tripura and Uttarakhand," it added.
The government said that with the roll-out of e-way bill system in these states, trade and industry is expected to be further facilitated in terms of transport of goods, thereby eventually paving the way for a nation-wide single e-way bill system.
Under the GST regime, an e-way bill needs to be generated and carried for movement of all goods valued at over Rs 50,000.
