The process of legally transferring ownership of a vehicle from one individual or organization to another is known as a vehicle ownership transfer. Only three events can result in the transfer of ownership of a car to a new owner: the owner's death, the vehicle's auction, or the vehicle's resale. Applying for a vehicle ownership transfer can be done electronically using the Parivahan site or through the RTO.
Transferring car ownership from one state to another involves several steps, including obtaining necessary forms, submitting documents to the new RTO, and paying road tax. Ensure all required paperwork, like the No Objection Certificate (NOC) and other RTO documents, are correctly submitted for a smooth transfer process.
Given below are the steps you will have to follow to transfer your vehicle from one state to another:
1. Details of the new owner
2. Information on insurance
3. Address that is permanent
4. Present address
