Haryana: road tax and permits for trucks

Haryana surrounds Delhi on three sides, so its trucks run NCR distribution every day, alongside the Panipat refinery, the Gurugram and Manesar auto belt and the KMP Expressway freight. Road tax is charged under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 2016.

Haryana for fleet owners

Goods vehicles pay tax under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 2016, which replaced the Punjab Act as it applied in Haryana. The schedule is set by vehicle class and weight.

This page describes how the tax is structured. It does not quote rates, because they change with each budget and notification. The current schedule is published by the state; the sources are listed below.

The rules

Tax, permits, testing and the practical side

Road tax for goods vehicles

  • Goods vehicles pay tax under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 2016, which replaced the Punjab Act as it applied in Haryana. The schedule is set by vehicle class and weight.
  • Some goods vehicle classes pay one-time tax and others pay periodic tax. The tax mode for each truck is on its VAHAN record.
  • The Transport Department, Haryana publishes the current schedule by notification. Online payment for HR vehicles runs through the Haryana services on parivahan.gov.in.

Fitness testing

  • MoRTH is moving fitness testing of transport vehicles to registered automated testing stations (ATS) in phases, and the deadlines have been extended before. Before booking, check whether an ATS has been registered for your RTO area or whether the RTO's motor vehicle inspector still conducts the test.
  • Check the department's current list of ATS centres before booking, because the nearest centre may not be in your district.

Permits

  • Home-state goods carriage permits are issued by the Regional Transport Authority for the district.
  • A national permit is issued by the home-state transport authority. The national permit authorisation that lets the truck run across India is paid online on the Parivahan national permit service, and its annual renewal date is separate from the permit's own validity. Track both dates.
  • NCR distribution trucks cross into Delhi and UP daily. A national permit is the normal choice; a state permit truck needs counter-signature for each state it enters.

Practical notes for fleets

  • HR 55 is Gurugram (commercial), HR 38 is Faridabad (commercial), HR 06 is Panipat. Commercial registrations in Gurugram and Faridabad sit on separate codes from private ones.
  • Delhi and Gurugram have dense ANPR camera coverage. Challans arrive without the truck being stopped, so a daily check per vehicle is the only way to keep up.
  • Delhi applies its own entry rules for goods vehicles, including time windows and restrictions linked to air quality measures. They are not road tax, but they decide when a Haryana truck can enter.

Questions about Haryana

Ask the team

Where do I find the current goods vehicle tax rates for Haryana?

Road tax in Haryana is charged under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 2016. The current schedule is published by the state transport department; start at the Haryana services on parivahan.gov.in. Rates change with the state budget and notifications, so read the version in force on the day you pay.

Does a HR-registered national permit truck pay tax in other states?

It pays road tax to Haryana as its home state, and an annual national permit authorisation fee online through Parivahan. The authorisation lets it run across India. Track the tax date and the authorisation date separately.

Where is fitness tested in Haryana?

MoRTH is moving fitness testing of transport vehicles to registered automated testing stations in phases, and deadlines have been extended before. Check the department's notices for the stations that serve your RTO, or ask the RTO whether it still inspects your vehicle class.

What is the penalty if the tax lapses?

Haryana sets its own grace period and penalty for late payment under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 2016. The penalty is charged on top of the tax, so the paid-up date on VAHAN is the one to watch.

Every HR truck's dates, without typing one.
