Bhubaneswar: The Odisha government has issued guidelines for affixation of High Security Registration Plates (HSRP) on vehicles registered before April 1, 2019, and the online booking facility will soon be available on the website of the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) www.siam.in.
“We thank the State Transport Departments of Odisha & Uttarakhand for their support in building a robust online booking process for HSRPs & colour-coded stickers. The service will soon be available for vehicle owners of these states on our website,” tweeted SIAM.
Odisha State Transport Authority has allowed vehicle owners at least 3 months from the date of issue of this order to fix the HSRP on old vehicles. No e-challan will be issued or fine will be collected or no penal action will be taken against any old vehicle registered prior to April 1, 2019, for plying vehicles without HSRP till August 31, 2022. In case the vehicle is not affixed with HSRP within the scheduled date, e-challan will be issued against the offending vehicle and attract a fine of Rs. 5000 or Rs.10,000 under Section 192 of M.V. Act, 1988.
Vehicles not having valid Registration Certificate and Fitness Certificate (for Transport Vehicle) or those having arrear tax due will not be allowed to affix HSRP by OEMs or its authorised dealers.
WHAT IS HSRP NUMBER PLATE
The number plate is made of aluminium. These plates are tamper-proof and come with two non-reusable locks. The number plates will have a chromium-based Ashoka Chakra on the left, along with ‘IND’ written. The vehicle identification number will be laser encoded, which is easy to be scanned and difficult to be tampered with.
Other benefits:
1. HSRP plates come with a non-removable snap-lock and are almost impossible to replace.
2. The HSRPs comprise details like engine number and chassis number in a centralised database. The stored data along with a 10 digit PIN (laser code) helps in identifying a stolen car.
3. Old number plates used to come with different fonts and styles. This made it difficult for traffic police personnel to read the moving vehicle’s registration number. With HSRP, registration plates will have unified fonts and styles, making them easy to read.
