"With the new system, motorists in Visakhapatnam need not visit the Road Transport Authority (RTA) offices for vehicle registration. The vehicle buyers will get the registration done through e-mail within 24 hours of buying the vehicle," he said.
Balasubrahmanyam said that people who purchase vehicles from auto-mobile dealers in Vizag RTA limits (excluding Gajuwaka and Anakapalle RTA offices) must have to carry a valid ID proof, such as Aadhaar card, driving licence and also a PAN card for commercial vehicles.
The valid ID proofs would have to be uploaded at the automobile showrooms in the city soon after the purchase of the vehicle and the dealer will send the details of the vehicle and owner of the vehicle to RTA offices through a login-id, he said.
The vehicle owner will get temporary registration immediately and he will get the permanent registration number by 5pm on the same day of vehicle purchase, the Commissioner said.
In Vizag, RTA personnel and all the 55 automobile dealers have been trained on the new system and given dealer login IDs, he added.
