As far as I know, Haryana government rates are approx 356. Did RTO vendor give you receipt of Rs. 1200?

It is Rs.406 to be precise.

Wonder why is there such a huge discrepancy even within neighbouring state governments. The cost in Delhi with all taxes included is Rs. 213 vs Rs. 406 in Haryana. That is almost double the price. How do they explain such a gross difference. Or is it just too small an amount for anyone to raise this point?:deadhorse

Hey mate, I'm from Kolkata and have accidentally damaged my windscreen HSPR sticker. Do you know if I can get it from my RTO ? I don't need to replace my existing HSPR plates, just the sticker. Thanks!

Hi, I am unable to answer your query, but you may call Mintoo Babu (he is a RTO agent who looks into all my RTO related work). His number is 98310 27855. Hope he is able to solve your issue.

Check online. A lot of queries will be answered and you could also apply online. Just google kolkotta rto or something similar. cheeers

Ditto at the Barrackpore ARTO (WB 23-24). Fitting HSRPs are compulsory in cases of transfer of ownership. Recently I called up a number of agents to get my car's re-registration done (going to be 15 next month). All of them mentioned that I'd need to pay extra for HSRP if I didn't have them installed. If I'm not wrong, a pair of HSRPs cost Rs. 520 here.

It's just the Govt.'s way of trying their bit to fit every car with HSRPs to regularise things. Every car that needs an alteration to the RC (re-registration, transfer of ownership, change of colour etc) and is not fitted with HSRP will have to get it done.


You don't need to do anything about it. I don't think the HSRP sticker on the windshield is mandatory, just like the PUC sticker handed out every 6 months isn't. I throw them all away since I hate stickers on the windshield, and I've never been stopped. If at all the police stop you, your documents (RC, PUC) should clear their doubts about the validity of the same.

Isn't this a security/privacy risk to have all the details affixed in the windscreen?

Few images from a colleague's new car that came fitted with HSRP, in Karnataka:

The riveted number plate with all the mandatory elements



A mandatory sticker that gets attached to the windscreen that has the Vehicle Registration Number along with 2 distinct codes that reflect the same code for 2 of the plates affixed on your car (Front and Rear). Notice the last digits of these 2 codes and refer to the same code on the image of the number plate above:



The rules to abide and precautions to follow that also says that this sticker is the "3rd Registration Plate Sticker":



Not sure what would be the procedure when you replace the windscreen if this one is not easily removable.

This is great. Wondering if this is all over KA or specific RTO only. I just got a bike on May 27th, ran it for a month on temp registration from KA05 in search of a better looking number. Finally on June 26, got something closer to what I wanted. Got SMS and now on the DigiLocker RC is updated too. During this entire ordeal, the bike is in regular use with blank/ REGD stickers. Since now I have a number, to avoid unnecessary attention, I used neighbourhood stickering services and put up black radium number. Dealer hasnt informed anything about HSRP neither I know of anything from RTO. So I am in a dilemma if I should get IND plates/ German fonts that I like from Orbiz or wait and watch? When I called dealer, they said they will give IND plates. Not sure if they are HSRP - they aren't aware of it!

Also in case of HSRP - will there be a third plate sticker too to be put on the bike - if so where? Anyone had HSRP recently from KA05?

So the registration of our new Vespa got approved just this evening from KA04 RTO, and I was told by the dealer that it would be HSRP plates. They showed the plates of other customers which they had received, and it appeared like the usual IND number plates with the hologram along with a unique serial number. The dealer claims they receive these plates directly from the RTO but I'd take that with a pinch of salt.

I asked if there'd be a sticker, they said no.

Another thing I noticed is that, when I checked the status of the registration application the HSRP status column is empty, not sure if that's the norm.

I just received my IND plates from the dealer - apparently they were issued by RTO and the fees were paid already it seems. These plates have unique serial number and a paper sticker stuck on the rear of them which appears like a tag. So here I am confirming - KA05 issues HSRPs at least for vehicles being registered in June and onwards :D

Just wondering what are the rates for the HSRP in Karnataka?

Can someone let me know if the caution sticker can be removed ?

Has this been launched for Noida registered cars? If such cars don't have these type of number plates, any issues while driving in Delhi/Chandigarh?
