Delhi bans all BS4 commercial vehicles to curb pollution

India Nov 01, 2025

Delhi is banning all commercial vehicles with older BS4 engines starting November 1 to help fight the city's air pollution.
Only cleaner rides—BS6, CNG, LNG, or electric—will be allowed in.
No worries if you drive a private car or use cabs like Ola and Uber; this rule doesn't apply to you.

How will the government enforce this rule?

RFID scanners have been set up at city entry points to catch violators, who could be fined up to ₹20,000.
If your BS4 commercial vehicle is registered in Delhi, you're in the clear.
The government hopes these steps will make a real difference for everyone breathing Delhi's air.
