New license: the guides in order

How every guide is checked

The same four steps, every time, before anything gets published.

Run it on the real portal

We go through the actual government site ourselves and record exactly what happens.

Capture the tricky screens

Screenshots go in wherever a step is easy to get wrong or the portal’s wording is unclear.

Re-check after every change

When a portal redesigns or a rule shifts, we redo the process the same week.

Publish only what’s confirmed

If a fee or step can’t be confirmed on the source itself, it stays out.

Watch out for agent fraud

License, vehicle registration and challan payments are common targets for fake “agents.” Never share your OTP, Aadhaar number or other personal details with anyone offering to “speed up” a license, “arrange” an RC transfer, or “settle” a challan. Apply and pay only on the official government portal linked in our guides, or in person at your RTO.
