New Delhi: The ministry of road transport and highways will soon mandate that vehicle owners intimate the government within 30 days of the cancellation of their vehicle registration in cases of permanent damage or destruction, or if the vehicle is permanently taken out of India, to help update official records.In the draft rules published on Wednesday, the ministry said it proposes to amend the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, by inserting a clause requiring intimation of the cancellation of registration."If a motor vehicle has been destroyed or has been rendered permanently incapable of use, the owner shall, within 30 days or as soon as may be, electronically report the fact to the registering authority in Form 37A," it said. "If a motor vehicle has been permanently removed from India, the owner may electronically apply to the registering authority in Form 37A," it added.
Vehicle owners may need to inform within 30 days if registration is cancelled
Vehicle owners must now inform authorities within thirty days of registration cancellation. This rule applies when vehicles are permanently damaged or destroyed. Owners will also report if a vehicle is permanently removed from India. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways is proposing these new draft rules. These changes aim to update official government vehicle records accurately.
