When
the ownership of a vehicle changes, the original owner (transferor)
must inform the RTO with whom the vehicle was registered,
within 14 days
In case the
new owner resides or has a place of business in the jurisdiction
of any other RTO, such an RTO will also have to be informed
by the transferor
If the RTO
in whose jurisdiction the vehicle is being transferred
is in another state, then the transferor must obtain a
NO OBJECTION Certificate (NOC) from his RTO and forward
it to the RTO in whose jurisdiction the new owner stays
An application
for NOC must be accompanied by :
- A certified
copy of certificate of registration
- A certified
copy of insurance certificate
- Evidence
of payment of all taxes up-to-date
The new owner
(transferee) must inform his RTO within 30 days and send
the certificate of registration for the endorsement of
ownership in his name
The certificate
of registration must be accompanied by valid insurance,
evidence of tax payment, proof of address and NOC if required
At the time
of registration or transfer of registration, the vehicle
is required to be produced before the RTO
No transport
vehicle shall be transferred without a valid certificate
of fitness
Where the
seller does not want to retain his insurance policy, his
insurance will be deemed to be transferred in the name
of the new owner at the time of transfer of the vehicle.
However, the new owner must inform the insurance company
and get documents transferred in his name within a period
of 14 days
Caution:
It is in the interest of the seller that the concerned
RTOs are intimated as early as possible, with evidence
of such information (registered post, receipt etc.) If
such intimation is not made and the vehicle is involved
in a crime, accident or traffic violation, the authorities
will hold the original owner responsible
