Here you go:

It's really not fair what they're doing, though. They're discriminating against the general population just because a few folk decided to register their expensive European luxury cars in Puducherry, etc., to save on a few lakhs in road tax each because the authorities rape you with the taxes here in Bangalore.

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

Try to avoid the police ...

I hope thats the case! Ill keep on checking with you guys till friday Thanks for the tip! My cousin's place is ON Bennerghetta road, next to shoppers stop. So there is no other way but to come through that road! Was planning to buy helmet and other riding gear stuff, but now i guess ill have to wait for things to settle down

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

Damn. Now just gotta see if this continues. I thought maybe its the financial year end on 31st march, so they are trying to get as much as they can.
Problem is i'll be staying in BTM layout where i heard there are a lot of checks, just as u get down on Banarghetta road. Also i gotta go to Electronic city once, and even there, there are a lot of checks !!! Worst thing is if they confiscate your docs, you have to come some other day, again to Bangalore, to fight and haggle and then pay up so much!

Try to avoid the police checks as much as you can. You'll get checks at BTM, EC, Bannerghatta Rd. etc. as these are crowded and popular places. I don't think it will happen after the start of the new month and once the salaries are credited.

Police checks are common here, . . .

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

Bangalore folks, please update regarding plying outstation vehicles in Bangalore! I have to come this weekend and seriously don't want to come by bus!

How long do you intend to stay, because you could bring the latest PUC and a petrol receipt of your state which can work as a proof for at least a month.

I'm not really sure about the amendment you're pointing to, .....

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

Requesting all Bangalorians, if you guys can update hows the situation like for an out station Biker to roam around in Bangalore. Ive been following Team-Bhp's thread for the last 2 weeks, Traffic police in Bangalore are stopping almost all out-station vehicles since the amendment of 28 (29 ? ) Feb '14 in which they have reduced the 11 month period to 1 month ( for an outstation vehicle to ply in Bangalore without paying Road tax ). Also, they assume you are staying for more than a month and confiscate your documents, and you have to prove that you are not staying for more than a month. Toll reciepts etc arent being accepted and people had to go as far as to show Electricity Bill's of their house in other states to prove themselves. Predominant in/near Electronic city.
I have to come to Bangalore next week, and i definitely don't want to pay road tax for coming for just a couple of days, and neither i want to haggle and argue with the RTO folks.
Any updates please ?

I'm not really sure about the amendment you're pointing to, a link would be really useful and helpful as it has been giving me sleepless nights for quite some while now.
I intend to stay for one more month and then I'll be back to my native registration state.

AFAIK motor vehicle act 1988, section 47 states that any vehicle intending to stay for more than 12 months has to re-register. You can Google this, but the amendment you're talking about, I'm unaware of that.

Please keep me posted with any updates if you have. Thanks

Regards
Pratik

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

Hey, so can you suggest any way by which i can retain my other state number and still ride in Bangalore (Karnataka) ? Can't i just pay the tax? and any idea how much tax would it amount to for a 4 year old r15 ?!

As of now, I am riding my KA registered R15 in Pune for almost 1 year. I haven't yet paid any tax as of now, but if I decide to stay back in Pune then I will pay only the road tax retaining my KA registration, as I don't wanna lose the KA feeling of my bike.

You can retain the other state number and ride by paying the tax of Karnataka. It shouldn't be a problem as far as I know. But you'll be needing a NOC from your old state's registration center by filling up Form 28.

If you want to change the registration, that also you can do. As far as I know, you can also get back an amount for cancelling the registration of your old state, as it is taken for a long term. But that's a long govt. process.

Depends on how long you plan to stay. If >2 years, get KA reg plates. Makes sense. Else just pay the tax.

Edit - IIRC, tax should be 79% of 12% of bike's invoice amount.

Re: Is NOC needed for a short trip

the latest ammendment by KA RTOs dated 27th Feb 2014. Soon, other states would follow suit!
