An e challan (also written as “e-challan”, “e challan” or “online challan”) is the digital version of the traditional traffic challan issued when you violate a traffic rule. The traffic police or the RTO system generates this electronically, records your vehicle challan against your registration, and uploads it to the database.

In India, the process generally works like this:

You can complete a challan check or online challan check by vehicle number through multiple methods, as shared below.

If your system response says “No challan found”, it means no active online challan check entry exists for that vehicle number. Note the following.

Make sure you entered the correct state code (for example “DL” for Delhi) and correct vehicle number. These mistakes often lead to “No challan found.”

If you received the traffic challan in a state other than where your vehicle is registered, it may show up only under that state’s site. Use the “Check E-Challan by State” section below.

Once you identify a pending e challan, you can proceed with echallan payment or online challan payment as described here.

Visit the state portal or Parivahan site, enter your registration number, view the e-challan or fine, then make the challan payment online via the “Pay Now” button.
 

Some states have dedicated traffic police portals for online challan payment. The steps mirror the above: identify, select payment mode, complete.

You have flexible options: UPI, debit/credit card, or net-banking for echallan payment.
 

After payment, you’ll receive SMS or email confirmation. Download your receipt—it may be required for RC renewal or vehicle transfer.
 

Below is a quick reference for typical offences, with approximate fines. These vary by state and may change.

Repeat offenders can face higher fines or suspension of licence/RC. Always keep an eye on your challan status and pay any due e challan to avoid severe consequences.

If you ignore your online challan or pending traffic challan, you risk licence suspension, vehicle RC renewal denial, or court summons.
 

Pending vehicle challans often block insurance claims, resale, or transfer of ownership. Clearing your e challan keeps your record clean.
 

By performing a challan check online regularly and paying your echallan payment quickly, you avoid late fees, legal trouble, and maintain full compliance.

Keep your Driving Licence (DL), Registration Certificate (RC), Insurance, and Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate valid. Failure can lead to a challan.
