Who is authorized to cancel an e-way bill and why ?

The person responsible for transporting goods must generate an e-way bill naming the recipient of goods. The common portal allows the other party to view the e-way invoice generated against their GSTIN. One can accept or reject the consignment as the other party. It will be considered that the other party has accepted the details if it is not received within 72 hours of the generation of the e-way bill or delivery of the goods, whichever comes first.
