Loan closed? Make sure the financier entry is removed from your RC record.
Hypothecation (HP) records that a vehicle is financed or linked to a financier. After the vehicle loan is fully repaid, the registered owner can apply to terminate the hypothecation entry, subject to the financier and RTO requirements. Loan closure alone may not automatically update the RC.

Eligibility and service scope
The vehicle loan should be cleared and the financier should provide the required no-dues/consent documents. If the account is disputed, a NOC is withheld, or records do not match, resolve the issue with the financier before filing or follow the authority’s specified alternative process.
Gurgaon and Gurugram refer to the same local service area in Haryana. This guide is designed to help residents prepare a more complete application, but the final checklist generated by the official portal and the competent registering/licensing authority takes precedence.
Complete document checklist
Prepare these documents, but treat the official portal checklist as final:
- Form 35 signed by the registered owner and financier, as required
- Original/current RC or registration record
- Financier NOC/no-dues certificate or loan closure letter
- Valid insurance certificate
- Address proof and identity/PAN or Form 60/61 where requested
- PUC certificate where required
- Vehicle chassis/engine pencil print or inspection evidence if requested
- Fee receipt and any other documents listed in VAHAN
Step-by-step online process
- Obtain the loan closure confirmation and NOC/no-dues letter from the financier.
- Open VAHAN vehicle services for the registration state.
- Enter vehicle details, verify OTP and select Hypothecation Termination.
- Fill in the required details and upload Form 35 and supporting documents.
- Pay the fee displayed by the official portal.
- Attend verification/appointment if instructed and respond to queries.
- Track the application and verify that the financier/hypothecation entry has been removed from the RC record.
Government fees and additional charges
Fees and taxes: use the amount generated by the official Sarathi/VAHAN portal for your exact service, vehicle class, age/category and application type. Government fee, tax, penalty, optional document assistance and courier charges are different items. Ask for a written breakup before paying a private service provider.
How long does it take?
The processing period depends on the financier’s documents, completeness of Form 35, verification and RTO workload. Use the estimate displayed by VAHAN; do not treat a generic number of days as guaranteed.
Common mistakes that delay applications
- Applying before the loan is fully closed.
- Missing financier signature or NOC.
- Name/vehicle/chassis details differing across documents.
- Assuming the loan closure letter itself updates the RC.
- Not checking the updated RC record after approval.
Frequently asked questions
Which form is used?
Form 35 is the standard form associated with termination of hire-purchase/lease/hypothecation; confirm the portal checklist for your case.
What if the bank has closed the loan but has not issued NOC?
Contact the financier and request written closure/NOC documents. If there is a dispute, follow the financier’s grievance process and ask the registering authority about the accepted procedure.
Is a new RC always issued?
The record is updated according to the service workflow; follow VAHAN instructions on the updated RC/card or digital record.
