However, you can avoid paying the fine by showing the application slip.If HSRP is not installed on your vehicle, then apply online as soon as possible so that at least, by showing the slip of the application, you will not be liable to pay a fine.
The state government had given time till April 15 to install high-security number plates in all the vehicles in Noida and Ghaziabad. This deadline is ending today and there was no information updated from the government till Wednesday evening to extend the deadline.
At the same time, complying with the order of the apex court, the government is also compelled to complete this task soon. So, it is unlikely that government will extend this deadline further.
Not even half of the vehicles have HSRP
Around 7.5 lakh vehicles in the district are registered with the RTO Department and more than two lakh vehiclesin the district are registered in other districts. According to the record, this number plate is installed in only one and a half million vehicles. The number of old vehicles in it is less than one and a half lakh.

The registration number of the vehicle owner is also present on this plate. Besides, a unique 7-digit laser code will also be inscribed on it, which will be different for every vehicle.
