The draft also outlines charges for renewing certificates of fitness (CF) for vehicles older than eight years, extending up to 20 years and beyond.

If implemented, the proposal will allow vehicles to remain operational beyond 15 years upon payment of the prescribed fees.

The draft, published in the Official Gazette on February 7, invites objections and suggestions within 30 days, after which the Central government will consider feedback.
