Telangana RC: Steps to check RC application status, Transfer vehicle ownership, Renewal procedure & Apply for duplicate RC

It is illegal to drive any vehicle on the roads in Telangana or India without first registering it with the appropriate RTO, which is why every vehicle owner in Telangana is required to register his or her bike or automobile with the Telangana RTO. There are two types of registration:

Permanent Registration: The car is registered for a period of 15 years under this option. The RTO Telangana registration number is also given to the vehicle’s owner. It must be renewed for another year once the initial term has ended. The owner of the car must produce specific documentation in order to obtain permanent registration.

Temporary Registration: At the moment of purchase, the car’s owner receives a temporary vehicle registration number from the dealer. The owner must, however, register the car within 30 days of receiving the interim licence.
