What Is an E-Challan?
An e-challan is an electronically generated traffic violation notice issued directly through the digital infrastructure of the Indian Traffic Police and Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH). Formally authorized under the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, this system replaces physical penalty books with high-precision digital evidence.
Equipped with automated speed sensors, Red Light Violation Detection (RLVD) systems, and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras across road network corridors and expressways, traffic violations are logged digitally alongside photographic evidence and registered directly against the person & vehicle RC.
Police Verified Proof Notice

State Traffic Officers utilize handheld PoS machines authenticated by Vahan / e-Challan server to verify valid clearance on the spot.
How Does Online Vehicle Challan Checking Work?
When you submit your registration number on CarHatke, an authenticated API query hits the central National Informatics Centre (NIC) and respective State Police repositories (e.g., Delhi Traffic Police, MahaTraffic, Bengaluru Traffic Police).
