What is the fee for 15 year old vehicles?

If your vehicle is more than 15 years old, but less than 20 years, then you do not need to worry. There has been no change in the registration renewal fee for you. The government has taken this step to reduce vehicles made before BS-II emission norms.  BS-II is a kind of pollution control standard. Old vehicles pollute more, so the government wants to remove them from the road.

Road Transport Ministry is doing planning

The Road Transport Ministry had issued a draft notification in February. It proposed higher renewal fees for commercial medium and heavy vehicles older than 15 years. This fee was Rs 12,000 and Rs 18,000, but transport organizations opposed it. The ministry had also proposed to double the registration renewal fee for commercial medium and heavy vehicles older than 20 years. This fee was to be Rs 24,000 and Rs 36,000.

Fuss over old vehicles

However, according to sources, this proposal has been put on hold for now. The government will take a decision on this later. These changes have come after a decision of the Supreme Court.  The Supreme Court has banned action against owners of petrol vehicles older than 15 years and diesel vehicles older than 10 years in Delhi and NCR.

PIL in SC regarding ethanol-blended petrol

Meanwhile, a PIL has been filed in the Supreme Court. It challenges the nationwide rollout of 20 per cent ethanol-blended petrol. The petition said that lakhs of people are forced to use fuel that is not made for their vehicles. The petition also said that everyday vehicle drivers feel helpless at petrol pumps, they are forced to buy fuel that their vehicle cannot handle.
