How to cancel NOC issued by R. T. O. Bangalore to R. T. O. Chennai?

When you obtain an NOC from the RTO Bangalore, it means that vehicle doesn’t belong to that RTO anymore. As NOC is valid only for 6 months, you need to reregister the vehicle in RTO at Chennai within that period. However, if you planned not to reregister the vehicle in Chennai, you need to cancel the NOC.  Cancelling NOC is required because in future, if you want to sell the vehicle you need to go to RTO in Chennai to obtain NOC for ownership transfer.

For cancelling the NOC, you need to obtain Non Utilization Certificate from RTO in Chennai stating that your vehicle is not registered there. Non utilization certificate is an official statement from the RTO stating that your vehicle is not re-registered in that state.

NOC cancellation is a 4 step process.
