In the revised slab, the towing charges for heavy and medium vehicles, including all commercial vehicles will be ₹2,000, while it will be ₹1,000 for light vehicles (four-wheelers) and ₹500 for two-wheelers. These costs have been revised after a period of five years, said GMDA officials.

Earlier, the towing charges were ₹1,000 heavy and medium vehicles, including all commercial vehicles, ₹500 for light vehicles (four-wheelers) and ₹200 for two-wheelers, said GMDA officials.

While the towing charges are levied by GMDA, the fine for wrong parking is levied by the Gurugram traffic police.
