HSRP Number Plates Made Mandatory For Old Vehicles From November 17? Have You Got it Done?

The Karnataka Transport Department has made it mandatory for all vehicles that were registered before April 1, 2019, to have high-security registration plates (HSRP) from November 17. Any vehicle that fails to adhere to the November deadline will be subjected to penal action against the vehicle owners. The officials from the state transport department said that this has come as a measure to have a standardised number plate for all vehicles.

Those who fail to comply with the deadline will be subjected to a fine ranging from Rs 500 to Rs 1,000. As many as 2 core vehicles were registered in the state before April 1, 2019. Since that date, the installation of HSRP number plates has been made mandatory for all vehicles.

The cost of HSRP for four-wheelers ranges from Rs 400 to Rs 500, while for two-wheelers, prices range between Rs 250 and Rs 300. But vehicles that don’t have registration certificates or overdue road tax will not be allowed to install an HSRP plate in their vehicles.
