Delhi government's new vehicle registration rule details As per an online report, the Delhi government is internally discussing a new vehicle registration rule, which will limit the number of fossil fuel cars per family. According to the new rule, each family will be able to buy only up to 2 cars (petrol or diesel). By this method, the government will stop the overpopulation of vehicles in Delhi. Additionally, the government also plans on waiving taxes on hybrid cars like the Maruti Grand Vitara, by reducing their cost up to 15%. Moreover, the authorities plan to achieve 30% electrification of vehicles by 2030 in the national capital. Earlier, the internal plan was to completely transform the state to 100% EV penetration by 2030. The authorities are also working on a second phase of the upcoming new vehicle registration rules. The second phase will completely ban the registration of new petrol/diesel cars and two-wheelers from April 1, 2027. While these plans look radical and impractical, the authorities are serious towards their implementation. However, inputs from the feedback received from manufacturers and stakeholders can change the course of these upcoming new vehicle registration rules.
