You will be penalized if you have not applied for re-registration of vehicle within 11 months of entering Bangalore. As per the rule under Section 44, Section 177 of the Motor Vehicle Act, which states that failure to register the vehicle for more than 11 months, can lead to penalty of Rs 100 for the first offense and Rs 300 for the second and any subsequent offences. This is in addition to the tax that needs to have been paid from the vehicle’s time of entry, along with interest.
