Gujarat govt allows retention, transfer of vehicle registration numbers

Ahmedabad: The Gujarat government announced on Monday that the owner can keep a registration number even after the car is sold or canceled, and can transfer it for a stipulated fee to a new vehicle purchased by him or her. Gujarat Transport Minister Purnesh Modi has announced that such a system already exists in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal and has been introduced here after representations from vehicle owners.

"People are attached to their car registration numbers for several reasons, such as religious beliefs or numerology. Now, owners in Gujarat can keep the number even after the vehicle is sold or getting it scrapped," he said.

"The retained number can be transferred to a new vehicle purchased by the owner. However, it cannot be used for an old or already registered vehicle. Also, the owner and make of both vehicles must be the same. Therefore, the retained number of cars cannot be transferred to a newly purchased bike by the same person," he said.
