In case of multiple applicants for the same number, an auction will be held on November 17, with the highest bidder getting the number. Demand drafts must be drawn from a nationalized or scheduled bank and must not be older than two months. Once a number is reserved, it cannot be changed. Applicants must register their vehicle within 180 days, otherwise, the reservation will be cancelled and the fee will be forfeited.

Applications for fancy numbers are being accepted in advance, but the new series will only become operational after all numbers in the current series are exhausted.
