Known as the first and one of the most planned cities in India, Chandigarh has well- maintained roads. However, to maintain the quality of these roads, the UT Transport Department levies road tax on vehicles plying on the roads in Chandigarh. Road tax is mainly a one-time charge mandated by law to maintain the infrastructure of Indian roadways.
Starting from 11 July 2023, the Chandigarh Transport Department has increased the road tax slab for two-wheelers (up to 8%) and four-wheelers (up to 10%). The revenue generated form of road tax will be used to maintain and develop UT transportation infrastructure.
The Regional Transport Office, or Chandigarh RTOs, administers all vehicle-related activities, including issuing registration certificates (RC), driver’s licenses, renewals, vehicle permits, controlling pollution, and the implementation of road safety practices.
