New Delhi, Jun 19(UNI) In order to give a boost to Battery-Operated or Electric Vehicles in the country, the Ministry of Road, Transport and Highways has initiated steps for providing differential registration fees, under the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989.
The amendment proposes to exempt the Battery-Operated Vehicles from payment of fees for the purpose of issue or renewal of registration certificate and assignment of new registration mark, an official statement here on Wednesday said.
This means that Electric Vehicles would be exempted from such registration charges. The exemption will apply to all categories of vehicles, including two-wheelers, three-wheelers and four-wheelers.
