Section 43 – Temporary registration ([India Code][1])

🔹 Short Note (Hindi)

🔹 Detailed Explanation (English + Hindi)

Section 43 ke tahat, jab koi naya vehicle purchase hota hai, lekin owner turant permanent registration nahi karwa pata (for example: transfer, transport, delivery ya inspection pending ho), toh RTO temporary registration number allot kar sakta hai.

Yeh registration limited validity ke saath hota hai, usually 1 month tak, aur prescribed form aur fee ke basis par issue hota hai.

Iska main motive hai ki bina registration ke vehicle road par illegal na chale.

🔹 Legal Meaning (Simple Terms)

Agar aapka vehicle abhi permanent RC ke liye ready nahi hai, toh aapko temporary registration number diya ja sakta hai, jisse aap limited period tak legally gaadi chala sakte ho.

🔹 Example
