Buyers of new vehicles will soon get to register them with the regional transport office (RTO) online with minimal intervention of a dealer, a top government functionary has said.
Buyers will, thus, save on extra registration costs charged by dealers for this service. The buyer will, however, have to pay the registration fees of the vehicle to the dealer who will, then, deposit them with the RTO.
Nitin Gadkari, Minister of Road Transport and Highways, said, “The law states that when you have purchased a new vehicle you have to take that vehicle to the RTO office for registration. We have made a change in that. Registration authority will be the state government which is the RTO but consumers can register the vehicle online, you don’t have to take the vehicle to the RTO. Consumer can save the fee charged by the dealer who used to register the vehicle on your behalf. The dealer will deposit the money with the state government.”
Registering new vehicles online sans dealers soon a reality
