Delhi Government Hikes PUC Certificate Fees after 11 Years

The Delhi government has raised the costs for Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificates for petrol, CNG, and diesel vehicles after 11 years. This increase affects all vehicle categories, with significant hikes for two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and diesel vehicles. The move aims to improve air quality and enforce pollution standards.

The Delhi government has revised the Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate charges for petrol, CNG, and diesel vehicles for the first time in 11 years, announced Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot on Thursday. The fee for two and three-wheelers has been increased from Rs 60 to Rs 80, and for four-wheelers from Rs 80 to Rs 100.

In a statement, Gahlot also revealed that the charges for PUC certificates for diesel vehicles have been adjusted from Rs 100 to Rs 140. He emphasized that this change is part of the Delhi government's ongoing efforts to ensure improved air quality and that all vehicles comply with necessary emission standards.

“The Delhi government remains committed to maintaining the city's air quality and making sure that every vehicle meets the required pollution standards,” Gahlot remarked.
