The VIP numbers are only issued to MP/MLAs on request at their letter heads or to the senior bureaucrats of the Delhi Govt. Your best bet would be to use some political connection, with the elections approaching in Delhi in 2014, your local councilor/MLA might oblige by issuing a letter for you. Else there are many a brokers out there who can get you the same with a "convenience" charge. You may contact the car dealership/ Civil lines regional transport authority (FYI Civil lines authority is solely authorized to issue/maintain records of VIP numbers now). You may find a few brokers/dalals there who can help you out (illegally). Regards | |

![]() So basically if one has a letter from a senior person in some ministry or from a MLA/MP one would not have to pay anything ? Just for an idea, how much would number like 2700/0027 or 2727 cost if taken from a broker ? | |

The number like 2700 or 2727 wont qualify to be defined as V.I.P number and should be available at every registering authority. You may have to shell out a couple of thousands. Or you may need not shell out anything at all. Yes, depending on the mood of the computer operator, he can easily move the series by +/- 100-200, so in case the allotted number as per regular series is say 2693, the operator can easily shift it to 2727. As for true V.I.P number viz. a single digit, two digit or number like 786, only Rajpur Road authority can issue that. If you could arrange a letter from an MP/MLA or a senior govt official, you can have it for free. Otherwise, only way out is through a broker who may forge a letter or be hand in hand with a minister's OSD or PA to get the work done. Another way out could be to look out for an old car with a V.I.P number viz. DDD 0027 kind and pay a premium amount to the owner to buy the car with the number. On papers, you need at least three year ownership of such old vehicle before you get entitlement to transfer it to a new unregistered vehicle. But I know someone who bought an old fiat and got the number transferred on his new ML 250 on the very same day. This entirely depends on the strictness level prevailing at that moment in the authority (no one in the authority would entertain you with such work after a recent sting was carried by a news channel on malpractices in the authority). So, depending upon the kind of "urge" you have for the number, you may try your luck. Best would be to settle for a number like 2700 or 2727 FOC after requesting your car dealer, this may require some waiting and patience from your end. I, for one discourage the help of corrupt people and their malpractices. Regards | |

| ![]() Is it possible to get a car registered under a RTO, which does not belong to your jurisdiction. For Example, If the RTO according to my residential address is TN01 but I want my car to be registered in TN09 RTO, is it possible? Any work around possible? My favourite series is not available in the RTO to which my residence belongs :( |

| ![]() I get that, Sahil! Any idea if it is possible to jump like 8 or 9 series ahead of the current running series? If TN XX E 0001 is the current series, is it possible to get a number in the TN XX AA XXXX series? Any restrictions on the maximum number of series one can jump?

| ![]() Stole the words out of my keyboard ![]() There is however some restriction depending on the RTO officer on how much you can skip ahead. I faced this problem when i got assigned a number in the xx xx AJ xxxx series and I wanted xx xx RS 5. The officer said its too much of a jump for them to do at that time. I am sure with some under the table greasing and nagging they would have agreed but I didn't bother too much as I settled for AJ-1234 instead with official receipt. |
