Questions people ask
How much is the challan for riding without a helmet in Haryana?
₹1,000, under section 129/177 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The pillion rider not wearing one is charged separately in Haryana, not folded into the same challan.
Does the same offence cost more the second time in Haryana?
For several offences, yes. Using a phone while driving is ₹5,000 the first time and ₹10,000 if it is repeated. Every row in the chart above shows both, because the second figure is the one people are not expecting.
What is the costliest traffic offence in Haryana?
Of the offences we list for Haryana, Offence by a minor — ₹25,000. Some others carry no fixed figure at all because a court decides them, and those can end up higher still.
Which offences cost you your licence, not just money?
7 of the offences listed here can suspend a driving licence as well as carry a fine — riding without a helmet, using a phone while driving, drink driving, racing on a public road among them. The suspension is separate from the amount, so paying the challan does not cancel it. In Haryana the fine is shown against each one in the chart above.
Why is the Haryana amount different from the central one?
Because some of these are compounding fees, some go to court. That is why a figure from Haryana can sit well below what the Act names for the same offence, and why quoting one in place of the other is misleading. Ours come from Haryana Police (Gurugram).
How do I pay a Haryana challan online?
On the state's own e-challan portal, or the central Parivahan site. We do not take payment and never will — money for a challan should only ever go to a government portal, so treat anyone else asking for it as a warning sign.
