To accelerate green mobility, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has issued nationwide mandates overriding standard state registration pricing:
यदि आप पुरानी पेट्रोल/डीजल कार को बदलकर नया इलेक्ट्रिक व्हीकल (EV) खरीद रहे हैं, तो गाड़ी स्क्रैपेज पॉलिसी और छूट कैलकुलेटर का उपयोग करके अपनी अतिरिक्त ₹50,000+ की आरटीओ छूट का हिसाब लगाएं। Calculate double the savings by scrapping old ICE vehicles for new subsidized green EVs.
Buy an eligible EV model. The dealer will apply the central EMPS/FAME discount and print the invoice showing the reduced price and correct battery capacity in kWh.
The dealer uploads your vehicle chassis number, invoice, and your Aadhaar online to Vahan Citizen Services. Vahan automatically calculates the zero registration fee policy and green plate marker.
Your state RTO approves the digital application and issues the green vehicle registration number. Book an HSRP appointment to secure the physical green license plate at the dealership.
If your state handles subsidies through post-purchase DBT, log onto the state's EV portal, enter your vehicle RC number, upload your bank passbook scan, and submit your claim for verification.
Yes! The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) issued a central mandate exempting all battery-operated vehicles (EVs) from paying registration and RC renewal fees across India. You are only required to pay for physical license plates or minor smart card levies.
Yes, all registered electric vehicles in India must legally display a special Green Number Plate. Private electric vehicles feature white letters/digits on a green plate, while commercial EVs feature yellow letters/digits on a green plate. They follow standard High-Security Registration Plate (HSRP) formats.
State EV subsidies are claimed in two main ways depending on local policies: 1) Direct Dealer Deduction, where the dealer deducts the subsidy amount directly from your invoice and submits documents to the government. 2) Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), where you register the EV, log onto the state's dedicated EV portal, upload your RC copy, invoice, and bank details, and the amount is directly credited.
The FAME II scheme was succeeded by the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme (EMPS 2024-2026). It provides targeted subsidies specifically for electric two-wheelers (e2W) and three-wheelers (e3W) to keep upfront acquisition prices affordable for masses.
Yes, electric vehicles must comply with the same fitness rules as internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Private EVs must renew their registration after 15 years, while commercial EVs must obtain physical fitness certifications every 2 years for the first 8 years, and annually thereafter.
