Punjab Govt Introduces New Rules for Vehicle Registration, Ownership Transfer

If you have sold your vehicle and the new owner has not yet transferred it in their name, call 1035 to get the vehicle temporarily suspended, Excise Department advises.

The Excise Department has issued an important public advisory for citizens who have sold their vehicles but whose ownership has not yet been officially transferred.

In such cases, the department has urged sellers to immediately contact helpline 1035 to have the vehicle temporarily suspended in the official record.

According to the Excise Department, this step is necessary to protect the original owner from legal, financial, or criminal liabilities that may arise if the vehicle is misused after sale but remains registered in the seller’s name.
