Fancy Parivahan

There mustโ€™ve been times when you would have seen number plates with numbers like 0007, 9999, etc. Well, these specific numbers give a separate identity to the vehicles. Since purchasing an automobile is an important event, people tend to make it memorable with these unique number plates. Although it is an expensive process, as it requires a certain amount of fees, people tend to do it as they have an emotional attachment to that number. Sometimes, people do it due to some superstition or simply because itโ€™s a lucky number for them. This phenomenon was common in fancy cars and bikes, and nowadays, more people are opting for this customisation.ย 

Fancy Number: An Overview

Fancy Number is a customised registration plate for a motor vehicle. It is like a personalised number plate used to give a unique identity to a vehicle. In contrast to conventional number plates assigned by official vehicle registration authorities conforming to a common format that follows a particular design and style, fancy parivahan is an option for car owners who wish their plates to be more expressive and unique than theyโ€™re allowed to be. Customisation can involve picking some letters or numbers that one would like to give an identity and a name. These special plates are often used for VIP vehicles.

Rules and Regulations to Get a Fancy Number Plate

It is important to note that according to the latest rules for number plates, new and old vehicles must have an HSRP. It should be present on the vehicle to ensure its steadiness/ standardisation of nationwide registration. The number plate rules in the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, mention that from April 1, 2019, all new vehicles will come attached with HSRPs*, and the unique number plates must contain HSRP*. Buyers can also check the RTO choice number availability from the official website.

Availability of Registration Numbers for VIP Vehicles

It is important to note that the authorities reserve certain numbers from 0001 to 9999 as VIP registration numbers. Since the regular numbers are generated through automated machines, you wouldn’t have much choice as youโ€™d allotted a random number. Hence, if you want a fancy number, you should check the availability of the numbers on the official website of the transport authority. For this, youโ€™d be required to put the details of the vehicle and its location.
