Quick answer: Fill in your company (consignor) and the consignee's details, choose why the goods are being sent - job work, stock transfer, sale on approval, and more - add each item with quantity and an approximate value, then click Download PDF. If the goods are returnable, toggle that on and set an expected return date. Everything happens locally in your browser using jsPDF and jsPDF-AutoTable to draw real vector text - not a screenshot image. This is not a tax invoice or a demand for payment - it documents the movement of goods only. Nothing is ever sent to a server.
- Cost: Free, unlimited challans, no signup.
- Where it runs: 100% in your browser — no upload, no server storage.
- Output: A real text-based PDF (selectable, searchable, small file size).
- Purpose field: Job work, stock transfer, sale on approval, exhibition, sample, or other.
- Returnable goods: Toggle with an expected return date.

🧾 Not a Tax Invoice: This document is not a demand for payment and does not replace a tax invoice. Any value shown against items is for transport, insurance, or customs reference only.
📋 General-Purpose Layout: This produces a clean, general-purpose delivery challan - it doesn't guarantee compliance with any specific country's e-way bill or transport documentation requirements. Check what applies in your jurisdiction and add any required reference numbers into the notes field.
🖨️ Real Text, Not a Screenshot: The PDF is built from actual vector text using jsPDF, so it stays sharp at any zoom, the text is selectable/searchable, and the file stays small.
✅ Privacy: Your challan data, including any logo you upload, is processed locally — it is never uploaded, transmitted, or stored anywhere.

Delivery Challan Generator – Complete Guide
Not every movement of goods involves a sale. Materials sent out for job work, stock shifted between your own warehouses, equipment loaned out and expected back, or samples shipped to a prospective buyer all need a paper trail - just not an invoice. A delivery challan fills that gap: it documents what's moving, why, and between whom, without ever functioning as a demand for payment.
What Makes a Good Delivery Challan?
A useful challan identifies the consignor and consignee, states clearly why the goods are moving, lists what's being sent with quantities, and - where relevant - notes whether the goods are expected back. This tool covers all of that, plus optional transporter and vehicle details for road transport, and an approximate value field that's clearly marked as being for transport or insurance reference only, never as a tax invoice.
How This Generator Actually Works
As you fill in the form, every field is read directly into a JavaScript object representing your challan, and a live HTML preview re-renders instantly so you can see the final layout before downloading anything. When you click Download PDF, that same data is handed to jsPDF, which draws your company header, consignee details, and purpose badge as genuine vector text - not a picture of text - directly onto a PDF page. The line items table is built with jsPDF-AutoTable, which handles column widths, borders, and automatic pagination if your item list runs long. The finished document is then handed back to your browser as a file to save - at no point does any of this data leave your device or touch a server.

Troubleshooting Common Issues
Explanation: The PDF needs at least one item with a description or quantity filled in to be worth generating. Solution: Fill in at least one line item's description and quantity, then try downloading again.
Explanation: Only PNG and JPG logo files are supported; other image formats or corrupted files may fail to embed. Solution: Re-save your logo as a PNG or JPG and upload it again.
Explanation: This field only appears when "Goods are returnable" is checked. Solution: Toggle that checkbox on to reveal the expected return date field.
Explanation: This tool deliberately keeps the value field labeled as an approximate, transport-only reference to avoid it being mistaken for a tax invoice. Solution: Use the separate Invoice Generator for a document intended for billing.
Frequently Asked Technical Questions
Question 1: What actually builds the PDF - is it a known library?
Answer: This tool uses jsPDF, a widely used open-source JavaScript library for generating PDF documents in the browser, together with its jsPDF-AutoTable plugin for the line items table - both loaded directly in your browser.
Question 2: Why does the tool keep repeating that this isn't a tax invoice?
Answer: A delivery challan and an invoice serve very different legal and accounting purposes, and showing a value on a challan can be mistaken for billing if it isn't clearly labeled - the tool includes an on-page note specifically to prevent that confusion.
Question 3: How is pagination handled for long challans?
Answer: jsPDF-AutoTable automatically starts a new page when the line items table runs out of room on the current page, and this tool separately checks whether the notes or signature section would overflow the page height, adding a new page for them if needed.
Question 4: How is my logo embedded in the PDF?
Answer: The uploaded image is read as a Base64 data URL using the FileReader API, then passed directly to jsPDF's image-embedding function, which places it at a fixed position and size in the top-left of the document alongside your company name.
Question 5: Does this tool need an account, server, or API key?
Answer: No. jsPDF, jsPDF-AutoTable, and the live preview all run as ordinary JavaScript already loaded by this page — you never need an account or any API key to use it.
