E-way bill generation rose nearly 6% year-on-year to 13.98 crore in July 2026, the second-highest monthly tally on record. Growth slowed from 14.5% in June and 10.9% in May. Sequentially, generation increased 2.21% from June's 13.68 crore. Experts attributed the sustained volume to strong import-linked activity and deeper compliance under GST 2.0. Gross GST revenue from imports jumped 28.8% to Rs 66,511 crore in July, while domestic GST rose 10.1% to Rs 1.45 lakh crore. The government has deferred compliance changes to the e-way bill system that were due on 1 August.
