“For this, we even had to amend the Delhi motor vehicles rules,” said the minister.

The transport department had started the pilot project for printing RC by enabling self-registration for dealers in the south zone in March.

The first RC was issued on March 17, 2021 and by September 2021, all self-registration dealers in Delhi were empowered to print vehicle RCs.

“The transport department has already issued 144,395 RCs through self-registration dealers since the start of the pilot project. Delhi sees close to 600,000 new vehicle registrations every year and with the new system of RC printing, buyers will no longer have to wait for months to get their RC, no longer have to visit RTO’s and can enjoy hassle free registration of their new vehicles. This service will soon be officially dedicated to the public by Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal,” said Gahlot.

Delhi has 263 dealers who are providing the facility of printing of registration certificates at the dealerships.
