With the aim to ensure seamless transfer of registration of passenger vehicles from one state to another, the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has introduced a new registration mark under the Bharat series. A vehicle bearing this registration mark shall not require assignment of a new registration mark when the owner of the vehicle shifts from one state to another.

Under the new scheme, the vehicle registration facility will be available on a voluntary basis to the Defence personnel, employees of the Central government, State government, Central/State Public Sector Undertakings and private sector companies or organisations, which have their offices in four or more states or union territories. The motor vehicle tax will be levied for two years or in multiples of two.
