Sec 46 of MV Act 1988 says the registration of any Vehicle is valid accross India. On the other hand as per Sec 47 if any one wants to use the vehicle more than 12 months the change of registration mark is compulsary. For that NOC is to be obtained under Sec.48 of the said Act.,
All these OK only the problem , payment of Road Tax at new location. In india lot of either big or small vehicles owners are employees and their nature of job is transferrrable from one state to another state. Example service of an employee at Chandigarh is transferred to Coimbattore who is having a 4 wheeler can use the same for 12 months in new location and as per rules he has to apply for new Registration for which he has to pay life tax. Already he had paid life tax at Chandigarh but the T.N State willnot allow him to use his vehicle unless the registration is changed by paying the new tax. They say on showing the new regd certificate the owner can get refund of remaining years tax amount from Chandigarh RTO .
Practically is is possible to any one to go again to chandigarh for getting refund of the same. Why the procedure is not modified. As per sec 46 prior registrationis valid, why other states are not allowing. Why cannot be the same is simplyfied.
The process is so complicated and more expensive and on the other hand a big harrassment in the hands of Police .
Pl give your suggestions.
