How to Get a Driving license in Gurugram (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Apply for a Learner’s license

A Learner’s license (LL) is the first step before getting a permanent driving license.

Online Process:

1. Visit parivahan.gov.in → click “Drivers/Learners license”
2. Select Haryana from the dropdown — you’ll be redirected to the Sarathi portal
3. Click “Apply for Learner license“
4. Fill in personal details, upload documents, and pay the fee
5. Book an appointment for the online test

Documents Required:

• Aadhaar Card (as identity + address proof)
• Date of birth proof (Aadhaar, PAN, birth certificate)
• Passport-size photographs
• Applicable fee (varies by vehicle class)

Learner’s license validity: 6 months from issue date

You must apply for a permanent license before the LL expires.

Step 2: Apply for a Permanent Driving license

After holding a Learner’s license for at least 30 days, you can apply for a Permanent Driving license.

Online Process:

1. Visit parivahan.gov.in → Drivers/Learners license → Apply for Driving license
2. Select Haryana and log in with your LL number
3. Fill in the application, upload documents, and book a driving test slot at your nearest RTO

In-Person Test at RTO:

While the application is online, you must visit the RTO in person for:

• Biometric data submission (fingerprints and photograph)
• The actual driving test (at the RTO driving test track)

Test Tips:

• Practice standard vehicle manoeuvres: figure-8, H-point turn, slope stop
• Bring your Learner’s license original
• Arrive 15–20 minutes before your scheduled slot
• Carry all original documents and their photocopies

Permanent DL validity: 20 years from date of issue (or until age 50, whichever is earlier)

How to Register a New Vehicle in Gurugram

When you purchase a new vehicle, registration is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. The dealer usually facilitates this, but here’s how the process works:

Temporary Registration (First 30 Days)

When you take delivery of a new vehicle, the dealer issues a Temporary Registration Certificate (TC) valid for 7 days, extendable up to 30 days. During this period, you must complete permanent registration.

Permanent Registration Process:

1. Visit HR-26 RTO (or HR-72 for South Gurgaon) with the following documents:
2. Sale invoice from dealer
3. Form 20 (application for registration) — duly filled
4. Form 21 (sale certificate from dealer)
5. Identity proof (Aadhaar/PAN)
6. Address proof
7. Insurance certificate
8. PUC (Pollution Under Control) certificate
9. Road Worthiness Certificate (Form 22) — from manufacturer/dealer

• Vehicle inspection — an RTO officer will verify the chassis number and engine number
• Pay road tax and registration fees — amount varies by vehicle type, price, and fuel type
• Receive Registration Certificate (RC) — the permanent RC is typically issued within 7–15 working days

Online alternative: Applications can be initiated at parivahan.gov.in under the VAHAN services portal, but an in-person visit is still required for inspection.

How to Transfer Vehicle Ownership in Gurugram

When buying or selling a used vehicle, the RC must be transferred to the new owner’s name.

Documents needed:

• Form 29 (notice of transfer) — signed by seller
• Form 30 (report of transfer) — signed by buyer
• Original RC
• Insurance certificate
• PUC certificate
• Identity & address proof of buyer
• Applicable transfer fee

Submit at RTO Gurgaon (HR-26 or HR-72). Processing time: 7–15 working days.

How to Renew Vehicle Registration (RC Renewal)

Private vehicles’ RCs are valid for 15 years from date of first registration and must be renewed thereafter.

Process:

1. Submit Form 25 at the Gurgaon RTO (online renewal is not available — must be in person)
2. Required documents: Form 25, PUC certificate, fitness certificate, insurance certificate, PAN or Form 60/61, chassis & engine pencil print, identity proof
3. Pay applicable renewal fee and road tax
4. Collect the receipt — you’ll receive an SMS when the RC is renewed

Note: Apply for renewal no more than 60 days before the RC expiry date.

How to Check Vehicle Details Online (Parivahan)

To check registration details, ownership, or insurance status of any Gurgaon vehicle:

1. Visit parivahan.gov.in
2. Under VAHAN Services, click “Know Your Vehicle Details”
3. Enter the vehicle registration number (e.g., HR26AB1234)
4. View registration status, owner name, insurance validity, and PUC status

This is useful when buying a used vehicle or checking if a vehicle has any pending challans.
