As we know that GST is talk of the town these days, Government of India notified it w.e.f. 1st July, 2017 except 2 chapters (registration and Composite levy), which were notified earlier w.e.f. 22nd June, 2017. All the Acts and rules whether Central wise or State wise are notified. However rules for e-way bill are yet to be placed in Goods and Services Tax Rules, 2017 and only a rule i.e. rule 138 is the part of GST rules, which say-

"Till such time as an E-way bill system is developed and approved by the Council, the Government may, by notification, specify the documents that the person in charge of a conveyance carrying any consignment of goods shall carry while the goods are in movement or in transit storage".
