Official format of a HSRP


The exact format of an official High Security Registration Plate (HSRP) has uniform fonts across India. 
All the black letters have India written diagonally as watermark. The Engine Number figures on the left along with the hologram and the IND marking. Even the rivets which fixes the number plate has special embossed letters.  

The plates are fixed to the vehicle at the RTO/ PVD premises by the agency which is selected after a strict tendering process. 
A car/ bike owner can be prosecuted if any tinkering is done with the number plate. 

You can't go to some shop or garage to get HSRP fixed. That's absolutely illegal. 
The men at the RTO can't hand over the plates to you. The fixing has to be done by men from the company who make the HSRP. The plates need to be fixed with special rivets authorised by the RTO/ MORTH. 

If it's a common nut and screw fixture that you resort to, the police can can slap serious cases against you. 
In the event of an accident or some untoward happening, you have to file an application to your home RTO and get new plates fixed. 
That's the reason it's called High Security Registration Plate (HSRP). Even the fixing is totally secured. 

Note: The photo of the High Security Registration Plate (HSRP) is for representational purpose only. Part of the content has been photoshopped to mask the actual identity of the owner of the vehicle.
