Number Plate Manufacturers Move High Court Alleging Karnataka Govt Permitting Only 'Influential' Entities To Affix High Security Plates On Vehicles

Live Law  

The Karnataka High Court will on September 19, consider interim relief of stay sought in a petition filed against Karnataka government's notifications mandating fixing of High Security Registration Plates on vehicles registered before April 1, 2019, by OEM's / Authorised dealers who in turn will source the number plates only from HSRP manufacturers authorised by vehicle manufacturers. Senior Advocate Aditya Sondhi appearing for the High Security Registration Plate Manufacturers Association of India argued that the impugned notifications excludes the petitioners, beyond the provision of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules. Thus the plea states, “Even though the CMV Rules allow the manufacturers, like the petitioner to supply and fix HSR Plates on old vehicles registered before 1st April 2019 without any further approval from State Government, the authorities acting at the instance of a few powerful HSR Plate manufacturers are blocking the Petitioner and other similarly placed manufacturers and exclusivity is given to the manufacturers.” It is alleged that on August 17, the State government issued a Notification by which, "on the pretext of allowing OEMS and their dealers to fix HSRP on existing vehicles certain influential HSRP manufacturers are given, the exclusive right to fix, HSRP on existing vehicles in the entire state of Karnataka.” It is argued that OEMS do not manufacture HSRP and rather give "back door entry" to influential HSRP manufacturers. The plea prays that all HSRP manufacturers enlisted in the "Vahan Portal", who have the necessary Type Approval Certificate issued by the competent testing agencies, to supply and fix High Security Registration Plates on old vehicles registered before 1st April 2019 in Karnataka.
