http://www.indianexpress.com/news/delhi-govt-to-auction-fancy-car-numbers/981692/

 

Want a fancy registration number for your new car? Be prepared to shell out up Rs 5 lakh and more as the Delhi government on Monday decided it will auction fancy number plates every fortnight.

Registration number 0001 will be the most expensive, with the minimum reserve price fixed at Rs 5 lakh, according to a Transport department proposal the Delhi Cabinet approved on Monday.

Numbers 0002 to 0009 will be the second most expensive, with the auction starting from Rs 3 lakh. The third category will include numbers from 0010 to 0099; 0786, 1000, 1111, 7777 and 999, for which bids will start at Rs 2 lakh.

Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said the system of auction will stop corruption in allotment of fancy registration numbers that ails the existing system and also help the state’s welfare activities.

“The amount accumulated through auctions would be transferred to the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund for enhancing the sphere of grant during natural calamities and for the needy people facing hardships,” she said.

Car owners looking to spend less can bid for registration numbers 0100, 0111, 0200, 0222, 0300, 0333 and similar numbers up to 0999; 2000, 2222 and similar numbers up to 8000; and 8888, 9000, 0101, 0108, 1008 and 1313, for which auction will start from Rs 1 lakh.

“Those who want a specific number, not covered under any of the four fancy number categories, will have to pay Rs 20,000,” a Transport official said.

The scheme will be open to only non-transport, four-wheel vehicles, the official said, and the numbers would be auctioned every fortnight.

“Once the fancy four-digit combinations for a particular series of registration numbers get auctioned, bids for the next series will be invited,” the official said.

The government will have to amend the Delhi Motor Vehicles Rule 1993 to insert a new Rule 34A, which will allow for the auction, the official said.

Supreme Court and High Court judges, Lok Sabha and Delhi Assembly Speaker and Union ministers and Delhi Cabinet ministers among a few others can book fancy numbers for free for up to two vehicles

Hon. Justice Sarin,

 

We have received an RTI reply vide ref No. 3894 dated 4/11/2011 from Transport Department.

 

While going throught the list of reply, it is evident that these Vehicles Numbers in the name of VIP & Fancy allotted to PRIVATE Individuals and even Private LTD companies for FREE(NO additional charge ) imposed by Transport Department under the direction of Hon. Minister of Transport as given in the file notings and of Transport department.

 

Numbering in particular manner was mandated as per Section 41 (6) of CMV Act  envisaged.

 

Earlier Cabinet of Delhi Govt stopped this practice after the CHOLA GATE SCAM. However suddenly the Minister of Transport, over ruled the cabinet decision and started allotting VIP/Fancy Numbers without any Policy framed. Later on policy framed with only 18 category of diginitaries. However record now received found that there are more PRIVATE Companies, Builders who have the capacity to pay for such VIP/Fancy Number given these number without charging any amount thereby causing REVENUE LOSS to Gov tof  NCT Delhi(As per File Noting No. 7N) . As per para No 22 & File Noting  on No. 7 N ( Page 53) by Shri. A K Srivastava Asst Director (Ops) is EVIDENT of REVNEU Model for VIP Numbering and proposed Rule 34 A to DMV Rule 1993. As per record this amend rule is this is  for Revenue collection on VIP/Fancy Numbering which are on high premium and high demand. However, CORRUPT Practices exists in formulating and implimentation resulted no such amendments nor any policy other than 18 category of diginitaries. 

 

 

The govt is giving away opportunity to have REVENUE from VIP/Fancy Numbers. As this exemption may be to favour some of the contacts of the listed people who VIP/Fancy Number for any kind of favour in return or otherwise, which can be revealed only after investingation.

 

We would therefore request Hon. Lokayukta to conduct an enquiry into the VIP/Fancy number allotment by Transport Department.

Reji, this has been possible with your continuous and tireless efforts and I congratulate u on this success.  

Now, the Delhi Police should officially inform to the Traffic Police that it should not treat the holder of VIP number holder differently as he is not in fact VIP.  The VIP number has been allotted to him in auction and this has nothing to do with any outstanding service rendered by him.  This  story came in ToI/ Jagran about 10 days ago.

I also congratulate u about your other move on security number plates on which u are almost nearing towards success. Security number plates will prove a great help in controlling the crimes committed on the vehicles by putting the fake number.

Some that DF could take Proud that it influenced getting such IMPACT.

Ofcourse still lot to do, if these people(OTHER THAN OFFICIAL Vehicle )Given these should be treated as REVENUE LOSS.. Long way to go to ensure that... but efforts are on that too.

http://www.indianexpress.com/news/no-fancy-numberplate-issued-since-august-in-city/1069430/

If you are looking to secure a fancy registration number for your car, you just might have to wait a while. The Transport department has not issued any fancy numbers over the past five months as it is still in the process of working on an online system through which it can auction these numbers.

While a draft notification for this policy has been issued, the final notification will only be issued once the auctioning system is in place, Transport officials said.

The department has only been issuing these numbers to Supreme Court and High Court judges, Lok Sabha and Delhi Assembly Speaker and Union ministers and Delhi Cabinet ministers, among a few others who can book fancy numbers for free for up to two vehicles.

"We have not issued any fancy registration numbers since August 15, 2012, except in the case where such numbers are supposed to be given for free — MLAs, MPs etc. We have assigned the work of creating an online auctioning system for fancy numbers to National Informatics Centre and the agency is still working on the project,'' a Transport official said. Suggestions and objections on this policy have already been invited.

The system of auctioning is supposed to stop corruption in allotment of fancy registration numbers that ails the existing system.

"People have been turning up at the Transport office and the Transport Minister's office also asking for fancy numbers since the process of issuing such numbers have been discontinued since August 2012. For most Delhiites, it is a very important status symbol and they are willing to pay any price for it. But we cannot issue any numbers until the auctioning process is in place,'' the official said.

The government will have to amend the Delhi Motor Vehicles Rule 1993 to insert a new Rule 34A, which will allow for the auction of such fancy registration numbers.

In July, Delhi government had cleared the auctioning of fancy numbers every fortnight. These numbers are supposed to be put in five categories with a base price decided for each category. Registration number 0001 will be the most expensive, with the minimum reserve price fixed at Rs 5 lakh.

Numbers 0002 to 0009 will be the second most expensive, with the auction starting from Rs 3 lakh. The third category will include numbers from 0010 to 0099; 0786, 1000, 1111, 7777 and 999, for which bids will start at Rs 2 lakh.

Car owners looking to spend less can bid for registration numbers 0100, 0111, 0200, 0222, 0300, 0333 and similar numbers up to 0999; 2000, 2222 and similar numbers up to 8000; and 8888, 9000, 0101, 0108, 1008 and 1313, for which auction will start from Rs 1 lakh.

"Those who want a specific number, not covered under any of the four fancy number categories, will have to pay Rs 20,000. The amount accumulated through auctions would be transferred to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund,'' the official said.

L-G clears auctioning of fancy number plates, Transport dept awaits EC nod

The process of issuing the final notification to begin with e-auctioning of fancy number plates got the formal go-ahead from Lieutenant-Governor Najeeb Jung on Monday. The Transport department has forwarded the proposal to Delhi Election Commission to seek clearance to issue the notification.

No fancy number plates have been issued to the public since 2012, according to the Transport department, which is ready with an e-auctioning system now.

“Once approval is received, fortnightly auctioning of numbers will take place through an online system which has been designed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) and has been tested extensively,’’ Transport commissioner Gyanesh Bharti said.

As part of the auctioning policy, the fancy number plates will be divided into five categories with a base price for each category.

“As of now, 140 fancy numbers in each series are available for auctioning. We have sent the proposal to the Delhi Election Commission for clearance so we can start with auctioning these numbers immediately,’’ a government official said.

The government will have to amend the Delhi Motor Vehicles Rule, 1993, to insert a new Rule 34A — which will allow for the auction of such fancy registration numbers. Premium numbers will be auctioned at a base price ranging from Rs 20,000 to Rs 5 lakh. The system of auctioning is supposed to stop corruption in the allotment of fancy registration numbers.

According to the Transport department, fancy numbers are only allotted to MLAs, MPs, Union and Delhi government officials. The launch of the online auctioning system had been delayed in 2013 due to the model code of conduct being in place for Assembly elections from October 2013 till December.

Each bidder will have to deposit a reserve price to participate in the bidding. The person will then be given a password, which will be sent through e-mail or text message. “If the final payment is not made by the bidder, the deposit amount will not be returned,” the official said.

Registration number 0001 will be the most expensive, with the minimum reserve price fixed at

Rs 5 lakh. Numbers from 0002 to 0009 will be the second most expensive, starting at Rs 3 lakh. The third category will include numbers from 0010 to 0099; 0786, 1000, 1111, 7777 and 999, for which bids will start at Rs 2 lakh.

Car owners looking to spend less can bid for registration numbers 0100, 0111, 0200, 0222, 0300, 0333 and similar numbers up to 0999. For 2000, 2222 and similar numbers up to 8000 as well as numbers 8888, 9000, 0101, 0108, 1008 and 1313, the auction will start at Rs 1 lakh.

Rejimon, Vice President of Dwarka Forum  persistence follow-up for years has brought this change.  Now, instead of recommendatory letters from VIPs for allotting , it will be e-auction of fancy number plates.  This will bring revenue to the govt. 

This may be listed as an achivement of DF because of untiring efforts of its founder Rejimon.

[Pankaj P]

Great achievement Mr. Rejimon.... All the best!!! Must say founding members of Dwarka Forum esp you, Sushil Ji and Sudha Ji are doing a great and selfless for the society. 

Also, would like to draw your attention to news report that appeared in today's Hindustan Times Dated 30.04.14 Pg 03.

"AAP decision reversed, VIPs to get fancy number plates for free - The VIPs of Delhi — which include elected representatives, judges and bureaucrats — will continue to get fancy car registration numbers free of cost while the common man will have to shell out a hefty amount for it. The city’s bureaucrats have reversed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government’s decision and reinstated the provision to give away two fancy or VIP registration numbers every five years for the private cars of the city’s VIPs."

Wonder why Judges, MP's, MLA's want these VIP numbers? Ain't they already have so many privileges.

Regards,

Pankaj
