Open Calculator →Vehicle Registration Process in Chhattisgarh
Chhattisgarh's vehicle registration is managed by the Chhattisgarh Transport Department with RTO offices in all districts. Major RTOs are in Raipur (CG-07), Bhilai (CG-04), Bilaspur (CG-10), Durg (CG-09), Rajnandgaon (CG-08), and Korba (CG-11). The state follows the Central Motor Vehicle Rules with state-specific taxation under the Chhattisgarh Motor Vehicles Taxation Act.
The registration process begins at the dealership where you purchase the vehicle. The dealer provides temporary registration and submits Form 20 electronically through the VAHAN portal. You then visit the RTO for physical verification of the vehicle. The RTO officer checks the engine number, chassis number, and confirms the vehicle specifications. Upon successful verification, a registration number is allotted in the CG-XX-XXXX format.

Road Tax Calculation in Chhattisgarh
Chhattisgarh offers some of the lowest road tax rates in India with a flat-rate system. Petrol and CNG cars are taxed at just 4% of the ex-showroom price, while diesel cars are taxed at 5%. This makes Chhattisgarh one of the most affordable states for vehicle registration, comparable only to a few other states with similarly low rates.
For example, a ₹10 lakh petrol car in Chhattisgarh attracts only ₹40,000 in road tax. A ₹20 lakh diesel SUV would cost ₹1,00,000 in tax. Compare this to neighbouring Madhya Pradesh where the same car could attract 10% tax for diesel models. For high-value vehicles, the savings in Chhattisgarh can be substantial, often exceeding ₹1-2 lakh compared to slab-based states.
EV Exemption in Chhattisgarh
Chhattisgarh offers 100% road tax exemption for electric vehicles under its state EV policy. The exemption applies to battery electric vehicles across all categories — cars, two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and commercial EVs. The state government has been actively promoting EV adoption in cities like Raipur and Bilaspur, with plans to set up charging stations at government buildings and public spaces.
Two-Wheeler Taxation
Two-wheelers in Chhattisgarh are taxed at the minimal rate of 3% of ex-showroom price, with registration fee of ₹300 and HSRP of ₹200. For a commuter bike priced at ₹1 lakh, the total registration cost is approximately ₹3,500. These low rates make Chhattisgarh an attractive state for two-wheeler buyers, encouraging personal mobility in both urban and rural areas.
