Inter-State Bike Transfer Thread

Re: New. At Chennai. From MP

hello people,

I know this has been discussed a lot of times, but again just confirming.
I am planning to shift my Ninja 250r from chennai to kerala(thrissur) for a period of ONE year only.
You can drive your own private vehicle in other state upto a period of one year only(not exceeding that)(refer Motor vehicles act,1988)(google mva1988.pdf). It means you dont require a new reg mark.
This means I don't have to get an NOC from Chennai RTO right?
NOC is required at the time of reregistration with another state. If you purchased your bike through bank loans then you may need to get NOC from your bank.
I just have to bring the bike to kerala and pay the tax at the Thrissur RTO for a year.
There is no such thing to pay tax for one year only as far as i know. It will be very expensive to pay tax for lifetime.
This will ensure I am not harassed by the police.. correct?
Always carry:
License
RC book/smartcard
True copy of your insurance policy
PUC

Before leaving your hometown get a valid photo PUC done(its proof of your vehicle present at your hometown on that date)

When asked by traffice police, convince them that you are going to stay only for 6months.

Your number font on number plate should follow RTO rules.

You should be the owner of your vehicle.

Please correct me if anything is wrong.
Also what is the amount of tax for one year? Its 2011 model vehicle.

Thanx

Answered in bolds.
Personal experience: I used my bike in maharashtra (registered in Gujarat) for 11 months.
I hope this would be clear.

Bike transfer from Ahmedabad to Mumbai

Hi, I am new to this site so I don't know if there is different section for help. I have shifted to Mira road (E),Mumbai recently from Ahmedabad. I bought my pulsar 150 with me but now no agent is ready to help me out paying the taxes. I live in a rented flat in Mira road. They say that in thane tax pay or transfer of bikes from out of the state is not allowed. I have already contacted around 15 agents and asked one of my uncle for help. But I am not getting any help. If I am not able to get the taxes payed here I would have to take my back to Ahmedabad and sell it. In case I have to take my bike back and I want to drive it back would there be problems at the border ?? As I brought it here through packers and movers and its been more then 3 months and I am not able to drive it even here. Please someone from Mumbai or Thane help me out.

You can freely drive your bike upto 1 year in Mumbai without paying misc fine. For that you need to keep bike documents with you like license, RC , insurance, PUC and convince traffic police politely that you are here for just few months.

But if you plan to stay there permanently then you need to reregister your bike only after cancelling registration from Ahmedabad RTO.

But I stay in a rented flat and reregistering is not possible in a rented flat....and there is one more option of paying the tax for lifetime but no agent is ready to do it...even with the NOC...

Please visit the nearest RTO and try to get information from people there. Yes, there is very slim chance I agree. But you usually also get small time agents who can give you vital information over a cup of tea compared to the fat agents in their agencies. Try this way

Thanku

Can anyone suggest something on the second question I had , that if I have to drive it back to Ahmedabad would there be any problem at the border as someone told me at border they register the numbers of the vehicles travelling and have a record and my bike has been here since july. So , would there be any problem or would any one stop me at the border? (haven't travelled across states in my own vehicle as yet so a bit confused)

Yes, don't worry. You can cross the border without any issues. Your case is 100% legal as i told before that you are free to ride your bike in Mumbai upto 1 year with same GJ reg mark.

My personal experience:
I had travelled four times on my bike (reg GJ06) to Maharashtra within a year. They dont harass the two-wheelers. Moreover, Traffic polic guys are very strict there. Youngsters like college boys are their favourite targets. I didn't pay any fine though my bike was GJ06. So, this is how i convinced them.

So, if they interrogate you just tell them you were in Mumbai for 3 months and going back.

Have a happy and safe journey.

If the vehicle is under loan, then you'll have to get the NOC from the corresponding bank for transferring the vehicle out of state. Most probably, you can get this from HDFC main branch in Delhi, or the branch in Delhi where all the loan related transactions happen.

I don't remember exactly what you've to submit to them, while getting the NOC. But, as far as I remember, you just need a copy of your id proof and a copy of your original RC (assuming the RC is in your name). I don't remember if any charges are levied at the bank for this process.

I guess this is sufficient and you don't have to go to any RTO after this process (when the vehicle is under loan). Coz, this is what I've done when I've transferred my vehicle from Bangalore to Hyderabad. Can anyone please correct if I'm wrong?

That NOC procedure is absolutely correct.
But one thing you should take care is that if you plan to stay in Hyderabad permanently or more than a year then it has to be registered in Hyderabad. Before this you need to cancel your registration at Bangalore RTO and then apply at Hyderabad RTO. This is legal procedure.

But if you are temporarily living for less than a year then carry NOC from bank apart from other documents

Bike transfer from Pune to Bangalore

Hello Friends,

I am planning to shift to Bangalore in a month or so. I have to shift my bike from Pune to Bangalore.

Now I know the typical procedure but i have some doubts so thought if someone could help me it would be great. Here is the deal:

1. I have Pulsar 200NS bought in Aug'2012 in Pune. Registered on my own name. So its about 16 months old now.
2. I know that I got to get NOC from Pune RTO. Then go to BLR and apply there for registration. Then once that is done, apply for refund in Pune RTO.

My doubts are:
1. Do i have to pay any entry/sales tax or something as my bike is 16 month old. I think I read somewhere that if the vehicle is not older than 36 months then one has to pay such tax.
2. Once I take my bike to BLR, do i have to take it to RTO immediately, or there is some buffer time for that available??
3. Is there any way I can retain my MH number?? I bought a fancy number here in Pune. Wouldn't want to lose it now.

Thanks for the help in advance,
Nilesh
