If your original RC has been lost, stolen, or damaged, you may need to file a police report to document the loss. This step might be required by some authorities to prevent potential misuse of the lost RC.

  • Visit the Parivahan Sewa official website. 
  • Choose the option to submit an online application for a duplicate RC by clicking on “online services” and then on “vehicle-related services”. 
  • Complete the duplicate RC application form and check the owner information that was created automatically. 
  • Online service fee payment.
  • Then a receipt is generated, which must be delivered with other supporting documentation to the relevant transit authority office.

Upload Supporting Documents: Scan and upload the required supporting documents. These may include:

  • Copy of FIR (if applicable).

  • Identity proof (PAN card, Aadhar card, passport, etc.).
  • Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate.
  • Vehicle insurance certificate.
  • Affidavit stating the reason for the duplicate RC application.

Pay the Fee: Make the payment for the duplicate RC online using the available payment options (credit card, debit card, net banking, etc.). The fee amount will vary based on your location and the type of vehicle.

Submit the Application: Review the information and documents you've provided, and then submit the online application.

Receive Acknowledgment: After submitting the application and payment, you might receive an acknowledgment or reference number. Keep this number for tracking the status of your application.

Application Processing: The transport department or relevant authority will review your application and documents. This might take a few days.
