What is the procedure to cancel NOC for registration in Delhi

976 votes

To have the NOC cancelled you need to make an application in the format prescribed by the RTO. Along with this application you need to submit the following:
a. Surrender/return the original NOC that you had obtained;
b. Certificate/letter from the RTO to whom such NOC was issued stating that your vehicle was never registered in that RTO
c. An affidavit on your behalf stating that you did not mis use the vehicle during the NOC period.
The said application along with the required fee should be submitted to your RTO. Do let me know if you require any further assistance.

NOC normally have three or four copies.While two copies will be given to you with marking of the new RTO/City, the other NOC will be sent by registered AD by the original RTO where the vehicle was registered to the the new RTO/City. If due to some reason you are unable to go to the state where the NOC is issued or got back to the original state/RTO before re-registration is done, then you may have to obtain a Non Utilisation certificate of your NOC from the RTO to whom this is endorsed. It appears from Motor vehicle act, that there is no clear cut procedure for it nor any format for this. Hence different RTO may have different practice on it. Where ever the RTO office is refusing to give this certificate, it would be essential you meet the RTO Incharge / Regionla Transport Officer and seek his intervention. he can even give a plain paper certificate stating that the said vehicle is not registered in his RTO/State. With this certificate and also with an affidavit that there is no mis use and your request is genuine, you should approach the RTO where you got the first registration done and apply for cancellation of NOC. Since the NOC details would have been mentioned in your RC Book, it is not possible to either change the name/resell/remove NOC unless it is applied to the RTO.
The above process may be painful but it is the only way. Most RTOs will not cancel the NOC with out making sure, the vehicle was not earlier registered in a fraudulent manner at the office of RTO to whom NOC was earlier issued.
