Karnataka govt extends deadline for affixing High Security Registration Plates to November 30

The Karnataka High Court is hearing writ petitions against the transport department’s August 17, 2023, notification. This notification mandates that vehicles registered before April 1, 2019, affix the HSRPs through original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and their authorised dealers. The petitioners have argued that all licensed number plate manufacturers with Type Approval Certificates (TACs) should be allowed to affix the registration plates.

The HSRP, a flagship project of the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), is an aluminium-made number plate fixed onto a vehicle by a minimum of two non-reusable snap-on locks and has various identifiable features. HSRPs are designed to prevent vehicle theft and registration number forgery. The plates feature a unique code and a non-removable snap lock, making them tamper-resistant.
