To get a vehicle permanently registered at Ahmedabad RTO, you should follow these steps:

Step 2: Fill the form and submit it to the nearest RTO along with the relevant documents.
Step 3: A trained inspector will assess the vehicle. This might not be required if the authorized dealer has already done the inspection.
Step 4: Post verification of the details, the RTO office releases a unique registration number for your vehicle.

The Registration Certificate (RC) is sent to your registered address through speed post. In case you have a temporary registration number, you must obtain a permanent one before the temporary registration expires.

As per the norms, a registration certificate for private vehicles is valid for 15 days. You must renew the registration before the expiry to avoid paying penalties. Your RC is renewed after the transport authority assesses the roadworthiness of the vehicle for five years.

To renew the registration certificate, you must obtain and duly fill the required RTO form and submit these documents.

• CMV form number 25
• Original registration certificate
• Pollution under control (PUC) certificate
• Road tax receipt
• Insurance for vehicle
• RTO vehicle owner details along with the address

Once all documents are submitted, the RTO inspector will assess the vehicle, and the RTO office will then renew the registration certificate.
