Take MH 01 AB 1234. MH is Maharashtra. 01 is the office: Mumbai (Central). 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.
