I am also in the same boat. Did you get any confirmation?

I checked with Tata car dealer in Panchkula and Ambala and they are saying RTO isn't accepting this yet.


Another scenario that I would love to understand, my office is in Chandigarh but i stay in Panchkula. What happens in such a scenario, am i still eligible for BH series in the city of my residence or work city and residence city need to be same?

No update, the dealer tried to make me buy the car now by saying the new plate will take a very long time to come here...

Planning to get a bike under BH registration in Mumbai.

A fellow member here had mentioned the same hadn’t started for two wheelers a month or two ago.

Any idea on the current status?

For e.g. if the pre GST & Cess price of the car is > 20 lakhs, one would pay a tax slab of 12% for a petrol vehicle, road tax payable every 2 years would be

(Pre GST & Cess price) X 1.25 X 2 X 12%
--------------------------------------------
15

As against this we have some states where the road tax is higher and some where the road tax is significantly lower,

In Chandigarh one has to pay a life time road tax of 8% for cars in the > 20 lakh price bracket.

So, if I decide to take a car with a BH series registration I would end up paying a road tax which would would be almost double over the life of the car if I ignore the advantage of making the road tax payments in a staggered manner.

Grateful if fellow BHP'ians could confirm if my understanding on this is correct,

Cheers,
Sid

You are absolutely correct in your understanding. See a BH registration is useful only if
1) you have a transferable job and have to change states multiple times over the lifetime of your car.
2) If you find that the normal tax is much higher than BH registration (For eg. Karnataka)

If either of these do not apply to you, then it makes no sense to go for BH registration as such.

I am getting a BH registration done. My address on all my documents is that of West Bengal. I stay in Odisha and buying a car there but there are no documents to support this. Still, the registration will not face any hurdles as confirmed by RTO. So I guess the same should be applicable for you as well.

Maybe I will be able to give you a better picture by the end of the month.

Yup, HR has not started BH series yet. I was also hunting for BH registration a month ago, and even senior RTO officers have confirmed that it hasn't started in Haryana.
We had the choice to get Registration from states which have started BH like UP, Delhi, etc. but decided against it.

Can you register for BH series in a different state if your address is Haryana?

All - need some urgent advise. My car could get delivered in 10 days time and my leasing company is saying Karnataka implemented BH only for central govt. employees. Is this true and has anyone other than central govt. employees been successful doing BH registrations?

Yes, its on hold for Pvt. employees without a valid reason and no official communication has been published expect an internal circular by the transport commissioner. However, state govt and PSU employees are able to get it. Also, BH is not possible if your lease is going to on the company name.

I think you do need to have an address in the chosen state (You can use the address of close family and friends), but apart from that I don't think there will be any hassles as BH is supposed to be a country wide plate.

I am in the process of getting my car registered with a BH Registration, as per my dealer we need an address proof in the state the car is being registered.

Punjab is not doing it for Private company employees yet.

Does anybody know how to check RC for BH series on mParivahan app? I put in my registration number and got an error stating that first two digits should be alphabets. Thereafter I have excluded 22 from the number and it is not able to look up the vehicle.

It works as-is on the latest mParivahan app (tried it a minute back to confirm). Perhaps you are on an older version.

A Gurgaon based Toyota dealer said that they can get the car registered in Delhi, when asked by a friend of mine
