<p>Citizens have been asked to upgrade number plates and affix HSRPs for all old vehicles registered before April 1, 2019.

Enforcement authorities (Regional Transport Offices and police) have been authorised to take legal action and impose fines for non-compliance under Section 177 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, after the expiry of the June 2025 deadline.</p>
<p>Made of a rare aluminium alloy, HSRP contains a retro-reflective film with a verification inscription 'India,' a chromium-based Ashok Chakra hologram, the hot-stamped letter IND in blue, and a 10-digit laser branding of a unique serial number, making it tamper-proof.

The &nbsp;non-removable snap lock ensures that the number plate cannot be removed without visibly breaking the lock.</p><p>
