Private vehicles are usually fined for lapses such as the lack of valid insurance and pollution certificates, while commercial vehicles are booked for violations, including permit issues and overloading.
A total of 1,109 vehicles were blacklisted during 2025-26 after their owners failed to deposit challans despite notices. “Under the Motor Vehicles Act, such vehicles are marked as ‘not to be transacted’, meaning no vehicle-related transaction, including registration, transfer or payment, can be carried out,” said Aseem Sood, Regional Transport Officer, Flying Squad.
He said that once a challan was issued, the vehicle owner was given a specified time to make the payment. “If the challan fine is not paid, a notice is issued. If there is no compliance even after the notice is issued, the vehicle is blacklisted through the ‘not to be transacted’ system. Vehicle owners are typically given up to 90 days to pay challans, failing which the blacklisting process is initiated,” he added.
Sood said, “People can get their vehicles removed from the blacklist only after paying the pending challans and informing the RTO Flying Squad. The office then initiates the process with the Registering and Licensing Authority (RLA) concerned to restore the vehicle’s status.”
In the case of vehicles registered in other states, their owners are required to submit a proof of payment, either online or in person, to the RTO Flying Squad. The matter is then taken up with the registering authority of the respective state for further action.
