Title: RTO rules for tinted glass


1
  • In India, the rules regarding tinted glass for
    vehicles are primarily governed by the Motor
    Vehicles Act, 1988, and the Central Motor
    Vehicles Rules, 1989. The Supreme Court of India
    has also issued guidelines to regulate the use of
    tinted glass in vehicles. Here are the top 10
    rules related to tinted glass in India
  • Visibility Requirement The glass of the
    windshield and rear window of a vehicle must have
    a Visual Light Transmission (VLT) of not less
    than 70. The side windows must have a VLT of not
  • less than 50. This means that the tint on these
    windows should allow at least 70 and 50 of
    light to pass through, respectively.
  • Ban on Film Tinting The Supreme Court of India
    has banned the use of any kind of film or
    additional material to darken the windows of
    vehicles. The VLT requirements must be met by the
    glass itself as manufactured.
  • Manufacturer's Compliance Only the original tint
    provided by the manufacturer is allowed, provided
    it complies with the VLT regulations. No
    aftermarket alterations to the tint are
  • permitted.
  • Exemptions for Security Vehicles used by VIPs
    and those requiring special security (such as
    police and paramilitary forces) may be exempt
    from these rules, subject to specific government
    permissions.
  • Penalty for Violation Violating the rules
    regarding tinted glass can result in fines. The
    fine
  • amount varies across different states in India
    but can typically range from ?100 to ?1,000 for
    the first offense. Repeat offenses may attract
    higher penalties.
  • Traffic Police Enforcement Traffic police are
    authorized to inspect vehicles for compliance
    with the VLT rules. They can stop vehicles and
    use VLT meters to measure the transparency of the
    windows.
  • Removal of Illegal Tint If a vehicle is found to
    have illegal tinted film, the police can issue a
    challan and may require the immediate removal of
    the tint film on the spot.
  • Applicability to All Vehicles These rules apply
    to all types of vehicles, including cars, buses,
    and trucks, regardless of whether they are
    privately owned or used for commercial purposes.
  • Safety Concerns The primary reason for
    regulating tinted glass is to ensure visibility
    for law enforcement and safety for the occupants
    by allowing clear visibility of the vehicle's
    interior from the outside.
  • Legal Challenges Vehicle owners who believe they
    require tinted glass for health reasons (e.g.,
    sensitivity to sunlight) may need to provide
    medical proof and seek specific exemptions,
    though such exemptions are rare.
  • These rules aim to enhance safety, security, and
    compliance with legal standards, balancing
    privacy concerns with the need for transparency
    and law enforcement effectiveness. Vehicle owners
    should ensure that their vehicles comply with
    these regulations to avoid penalties and ensure
    road safety. You can read more RTO FINE FOR USING
