Listing ID #3242961

All motorised road vehicles are tagged with a licence number in India. The licence plate number is issued by the district-level Regional Transport Office (RTO) of respective states - the main authority on road matters.The licence plates are placed in the front and back of the vehicle.By law, all plates are based on modern Hindu-Arabic numerals with Roman alphabet, though many states violate this by writing the numerals in the local script. Other guidelines include having the plate lit up at night and the restriction of the fonts that could be used.In some states such as Sikkim, cars bearing outside plates are barred from entering restricted areas.
