Not a government website
parivahan.in.net is an independent information site. It is not a government website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the National Informatics Centre, Parivahan, Sarathi, Vahan, eChallan or any state transport department. Names of official services are used only to describe them. The official portal is parivahan.gov.in.
Information only
The guides explain official procedures in plain language. They are not legal advice. The Motor Vehicles Act, the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, Gazette notifications and the decision of your licensing or registering authority always prevail. If anything here differs from what the official portal or your RTO tells you, follow the official source.
Fees and state variations
Fees quoted are the central fees in the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, with the notification that set them. States may charge less, and they add their own amounts for services, technology and testing, as well as road tax and other charges. The amount shown on Sarathi or Vahan before you pay is the amount that applies. The fee calculator gives central fees only.
No collection of data
This site does not collect licence numbers, registration numbers, Aadhaar numbers, phone numbers, OTPs or payment details. It has no forms, logins or payment pages, offers no status checks or vehicle lookups, and takes no applications. Never share an OTP or pay a fee anywhere except on parivahan.gov.in or in the official Nexgen mParivahan app.
Changes to rules
Motor vehicle rules change through Acts of Parliament, Gazette notifications and state orders, sometimes at short notice. Each page shows the date it was last updated, and draft rules are marked as proposals. Check the official portal before you rely on a date, fee or document list, especially if the date at the top of the page is not recent.
External links
Links to official portals and documents are given for convenience. We do not control those sites, and their addresses or content may change. More about how the guides are written is on the about page, and you can return to the home page at any time.
