No need to visit the RTO to change vehicle ownership from bank to your name.
In a major relief for vehicle owners in Maharashtra, the state's Transport Commissioner has issued a circular to regularise online hypothecation removal services across the state.
This digital initiative aims to make the post-loan ownership transfer process completely online, eliminating the need to visit Regional Transport Offices (RTOs) physically.
Until now, vehicle owners who repaid their vehicle loans had to visit the RTO with physical documents to remove the bank’s name from the vehicle registration. This meant standing in queues, managing paperwork, and sometimes even relying on agents.
Starting 2025, vehicle loan hypothecation removal can now be done online. With this change, once the loan is fully repaid, the vehicle ownership can be transferred from the bank to the owner's name directly via the RTO’s ‘Vahan’ portal, saving both time and effort.
Imagine, Rahul, a software engineer from Nagpur who purchased a bike worth ₹1.5 lakh with a loan from a reputed bank. While the vehicle was registered in Rahul’s name, the bank had a legal right over the bike until he fully repaid the loan.
This right is known as hypothecation.
In simple terms, loan hypothecation means the vehicle is pledged to the lender as security. Once the loan is cleared, the owner needs to remove this hypothecation to gain full ownership, which was traditionally done at the RTO.
But now, Rahul can do it all online.
Here is a step-by-step guide to digitally remove loan hypothecation:
The shift to digital systems brings several advantages, though it also comes with minor challenges:
This digital transformation means RTO processes are now more transparent and less vulnerable to manipulation. Moreover, reducing manual documentation eases the operational burden on both citizens and government officials.
The launch of online hypothecation removal is a commendable step toward digitising transport-related services in Maharashtra.
Vehicle owners can now breathe a sigh of relief, no more standing in long RTO queues just to update ownership details.
*T&C Apply
With a few simple clicks on the Vahan portal, the entire loan clearance and hypothecation removal process can now be completed from the comfort of your home.
As more banks integrate and awareness grows, this digital shift is bound to become the new norm across India.
