Massive Car Registration Fee Hike Proposed – Full Details

The upcoming Punjab budget for fiscal year 2025–26 is expected to bring challenging news for vehicle and motorcycle owners, as a massive car registration fee hike is being proposed. This vehicle registration hike aims to generate more revenue for the province and enhance transparency in the system.

According to sources, the Excise, Taxation, and Narcotics Control Department has submitted recommendations for a registration charges update. These proposed changes would significantly increase the auto registration cost for both small and large vehicles.

Proposed Car Fee Increases:

Cars up to 1000cc: From Rs. 1,200 to Rs. 5,000
Cars from 1001cc to 1800cc: From Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 11,000
Cars above 1800cc: From Rs. 3,000 to Rs. 22,000
Heavy Transport Vehicles (HTVs): From Rs. 4,000 to Rs. 11,000

Additionally, motorcycle registration fees are also expected to increase, though specific figures will be announced in the budget presentation.

The car registration news has sparked concern among the public. Many citizens argue that owning a vehicle is already a financial burden, and this car fee increase would make things worse. Experts warn that the vehicle fee hike could hurt automobile sales and slow down local production.

Despite public backlash, government officials insist that the hike is a necessary step to reduce fake entries and enforce stricter Govt car tax regulations. The final decision will be made during the cabinet meeting and the official car tax 2025 budget session.

Stay tuned for more updates on these new vehicle charges and how they will affect car and motorcycle owners across Punjab.
