How the fees add up
Fees are charged for each class of vehicle. A person applying for a car only pays for one class. A person applying for a motor cycle and a car pays for two.
| Classes | Learner stage | Driving licence stage | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| One | 150 + 50 = 200 | 300 + 200 = 500 | Rs 700 |
| Two | 300 + 50 = 350 | 600 + 200 = 800 | Rs 1,150 |
| Three | 450 + 50 = 500 | 900 + 200 = 1,100 | Rs 1,600 |
What is not in this table
- State charges. States add user charges, smart card fees or service fees. That is why the amount on your receipt is higher than the table.
- Repeat tests. Each repeat of the learner's test (Rs 50) or the driving test (Rs 300 for each class) is paid again.
- Driving school fees. These are private charges and have nothing to do with the government fee.
Pay only on the official site
Fees are paid on sarathi.parivahan.gov.in or at the RTO counter, and you get a receipt. Nobody needs to be paid extra to "get the licence made". If someone asks, it is not an official fee.
