How to read a JH number

Take JH 01 AB 1234. JH is Jharkhand. 01 is the office: Ranchi. The letters and the last four digits are the running series of that office. More on reading number plates.

What "On VAHAN since" means

The dashboard lists the offices running on VAHAN 4, the national vehicle registration system, and shows a date beside each one. We take it to be the date that office started on VAHAN 4. It is not the date the office was opened.

Source and date. Offices, codes and dates are as listed on the public VAHAN dashboard of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways on 11 November 2026. This site is not a government site. For any work at an RTO, check with the office or on parivahan.gov.in.
