1. Form 60
2. Form 20
3. Form 21
4. Form 22
6. Temporary registration certificate
7. Tax invoice (Manufacturer to Dealer)
8. Insurance certificate
9. Pan copy
10. Aadhar copy
11. L & L agreement (rental agreement) with PVR Copy (police verification)
12. Rental house electricity bill copy
13. Chassis imprints on around 5 empty sheets

5. Sent the documents to an agent in Mumbai on WhatsApp to verify the documents
6. Post verification, fixed a date and drove down to Mumbai (might not be needed in some cases)
7. Paid the road tax of Rs.29,900 odd for 2 years (road tax component alone was Rs.26,000 odd)
8. Got the HSRP done from the dealer
9. HSRP fit
10. RC printed and delivered

It took some running around for sure. But it was certainly worth it. 4.55L as road tax for the garbage roads we get in Bangalore is just not worth it. This scheme will cost me Rs.1.86L overall.

NOTE: BH series road tax is calculated based on invoice amount without GST. Hence the massive difference in road tax between the two.

The road tax is to be calculated on the invoice price, which is inclusive of GST.

I got my BH registration recently. It was calculated on the invoice price.
How many days did it take for the RC to be delivered?

I got our XUV7OO purchase in Bangalore but registered under BH series in Mumbai because of our state's greedy politics.

The procedure was as follows,

1. Inform the dealer about temporary registration - we had to provide address proof for the final registration RTO (Mumbai, in my case). A rental agreement will suffice
2. The temporary registration was valid for 6 months.
3. Needed a registered rental agreement and police verification certificate - NoBroker helps with this. They handle it end to end
4. List of documents needed,

5. Sent the documents to an agent in Mumbai on WhatsApp to verify the documents
6. Post verification, fixed a date and drove down to Mumbai (might not be needed in some cases)
7. Paid the road tax of Rs.29,900 odd for 2 years (road tax component alone was Rs.26,000 odd)
8. Got the HSRP done from the dealer
9. HSRP fit
10. RC printed and delivered

Thanks for the informative article. I hope you don't get troubled by BLR Traffic police, because of your BH number.
Also, is there a workaround for private job holders to get the BH registration if their company is present in less than 4 states?

Attachment 2391822

Link to the notification - https://static.pib.gov.in/WriteReadD...c202182801.pdf

But, unfortunately none of the state RTOs are following this. In this thread itself, most of the owners who got it done have confirmed that they paid the tax on the total invoice amount, which is inclusive of GST.
Could you please double check your invoice amount breakup (Factory price + GST) and the Tax paid - what percentage, and on what base?

Was the dealer clear on this? Did the registration happen without GST or with GST?
When I got the BH registration for my vehicle, I fought a lot with the dealer for the same and dealer didnt budge as according to him he checked the same with local RTO and was advised to do the registration for the invoice with GST. :Frustrati

Workaround for less than 4 states is very unlikely. Especially because some RTOs ask for GST certificates in those 4 states.

The breakdown was as follows,
Road safety tax - Rs.3122
MV tax - Rs.26,013
Smart Card fee - Rs.200
New registration - Rs.600
Post fee - Rs.50

Breaking down the MV tax - Rs.26,013

Breakdown of the ex-showroom price was as follows - Rs.15,37,444 + Rs.2,15,242 (GST) + Rs.2,15,242 (GST) + Rs.3,07,489 ((ex)Cess)

Note: Since the price before taxes is <20L, the BH series tax percentage is 10% and not 12%.

Using the formula of 2 years' tax = (MV Tax as per invoice price * 1.25 * 2)/15,

26013 = (priceUsedForCalculation * 0.10 * 2.5) / 15

priceUsedForCalculation= (26013 * 15) / (2.5 * 0.1) = Rs.15,60,780

Now, I have no idea where this number came from. rl:But yes, it does seem very close to the invoice price sans GST and Cess.

Waseem.

Thank you for all your efforts, Waseem! So thankful that these greedy politicians have been put in their place.

The dealer was not involved at all. They just gave us the documents in Bangalore. The rest was all up to us to get it done with the RTO agent in Mumbai.

Kerala will not implement BH series for the time being.
https://www.onmanorama.com/news/kera...les-india.html
Quoting some sentences from the news:

Quote:

It is partly because the legal proceedings initiated by the State Government are still on in the High court against BH implementation.

Quote:

Even as questions are raised on whether Kerala would allow BH series registrations ...

Quote:

... the State Transport Department clarifies that it sticks to the stand.

Quote:

However, Kerala claims that the BH series vehicles would get legal protection and coverage only if a finance bill is presented and made legislation."

Ex Showroom price : 826000
Invoice price for BH: ( (826000 / 129) * 100 ) = 640310 (I couldn't understand why he did that, but the final price is correct, as mentioned in tax receipt. He told me total tax is 29%)

MV Tax on receipt for 1st 2 years: 8538

BH registration is 8% of Invoice price: 640310*8% = 51224
Final Tax: 51224 / 6 = 8538

Does this mean that BH tax is calculated for 12 years and not 15?

Hence, BH registration for 15 years = 640310*(8/100)*1.25
BH registration for 2 years = (2/15)*640310*(8/100)*1.25 = 8537

There seems to be a new notification which allows conversion of existing car nu ber to BH series

Does anyone know about this and what the proces is?

More details, though still a lot more details are required like refund of existing LTT paid, etc.

The process of conversion of the old regular registration mark to a new BH series is quite simple. The Gazette notification states that " if at any time, owner of a vehicle registered in regular series of any State or Union Territory becomes eligible for BH-series as per clause (ca) or (cb) of sub-rule (1) of rule 47 and owner of such vehicle opts for registration mark in BH-series for such vehicle, then owner of such vehicle shall apply in Form 27A for assignment of registration mark in BH-series to any registering authority of the State or Union Territory in which such vehicle is currently registered or placed". It further mentions that, on the assignment of registration mark in BH-series, the owner of the vehicle is liable to payment of requisite tax.
