Mahindra Thar 4x2 Hard Top 2024

A private car’s registration is valid for 15 years from first registration. For this 2024 car that runs to around 2039; the exact date is printed on the RC. After that it can be renewed for 5 years at a time.

Not at the moment. Private (white-board) cars need a fitness certificate only when the registration is renewed after 15 years, so around 2039 for this car. Commercial yellow-board vehicles have separate, regular fitness checks.

The seller and buyer sign Form 29 and Form 30, which are filed at the RTO with the RC, valid insurance, a valid PUC certificate and the buyer’s ID and address proof. Quality Cars helps prepare and file the paperwork, and you can follow each stage on the Document Tracker. The time taken depends on the RTO, so ask us for the current timeline when you buy.

If a loan (hypothecation) is recorded on the RC, the lender’s NOC and Form 35 are used to remove it before or with the transfer. Ask us to confirm this car’s status from the RC before you buy.

This car’s insurance is running. After the ownership transfer the policy must be moved into your name, so that claims stay valid; we can help. The previous owner’s No Claim Bonus does not pass to you; it stays with them.

Cars registered outside Karnataka need an NOC from the original RTO and Karnataka road tax before they can be re-registered here. Ask us whether a car needs this, and what it costs.

The 10-year diesel restriction you may have heard of applies in Delhi NCR, not Karnataka. Here the standard 15-year registration rule applies, with renewal after a fitness test.

The asking price is negotiable. Tap “Request best price” and we will come back with our best figure for this car.

The RC (or the RTO transfer acknowledgement while the new RC is issued), insurance in your name, a PUC certificate. Check everything against the car report at delivery.

A valid driving licence. Drive the car at the showroom, book a live video walkaround, or request a home test drive, which is subject to availability.
