Why Check RC Status in Puducherry?

If you own a vehicle registered at the PY-01 RTO, keeping track of your RC status is legally mandated under the Motor Vehicles Act. It's crucial for several reasons:

Verify Ownership

Ensure the vehicle is registered under your name and check for active hypothecation (bank loans).

Avoid Traffic Fines

Check if the Puducherry traffic police have issued any pending e-Challans against your number plate.

Document Validity

Check the expiry dates of your Fitness Certificate, Insurance policy, and PUCC (Pollution) status.
