Step 1: Access the Official E-Challan Website

1. Open your browser:
   • The first step is to open a web browser on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
2. Visit the official website:
   • Go to the E-Challan official website hosted by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. The website URL is echallan.parivahan.gov.in.Alternatively, you can use your state’s transport department website if it offers E-Challan services. Most states now integrate their local systems with the national platform for seamless access.
3. Navigate to the E-Challan section:
   • On the homepage, look for the “Check Challan Status” or “E-Challan Services” option, which is usually displayed prominently in the services menu.

Step 2: Select the “Challan Status” Option

1. Click on the “Check Challan Status”:
   • After finding the relevant option, click on “Check Challan Status.” This will take you to a page where you can choose how you want to search for your E-Challan.
2. Choose the Vehicle Number option:
   • You will be presented with different ways to search for your challan. Options typically include:
     • Challan Number (if you already have it),Driving License Number, orVehicle Registration Number.
     For this guide, select the Vehicle Registration Number option.

Step 3: Enter the Vehicle Registration Number

1. Provide your vehicle details:
   • Enter your vehicle registration number (sometimes referred to as the license plate number) into the relevant field. Ensure that you type the number exactly as it appears on your vehicle’s registration certificate, including any letters, dashes, or spaces.
2. Double-check for accuracy:
   • Before proceeding, double-check the number you entered. Any minor errors might result in an incorrect search, which could prevent you from finding the correct E-Challan status.

Step 4: Enter the Captcha Code

1. Solve the Captcha:
   • Most websites will require you to complete a simple Captcha code to confirm that you’re a real user and not a bot. This is a security measure to prevent spam or unauthorized access to the system.
2. Enter the Captcha:
   • Type the Captcha code into the designated field. If the code isn’t clear, you can usually refresh it to generate a new one.

Step 5: Submit the Form

1. Click on “Get Details” or “Submit”:
   • Once you’ve entered your vehicle number and solved the Captcha, click the “Submit” or “Get Details” button. This action will trigger the system to search for any pending or issued E-Challans against the provided vehicle registration number.
2. Wait for the response:
   • It may take a few seconds for the system to retrieve the data, depending on your internet speed and the system’s processing time.

Step 6: Review the Challan Details

1. View your E-Challan details:
   • Once the system retrieves the information, it will display all the E-Challans issued against your vehicle. This includes important details like:
     • Challan number:
       • A unique ID for each challan issued.
     • Violation details:
       • Type of traffic violation (e.g., speeding, red light jumping, no seatbelt, etc.).
     • Date and time:
       • When the violation occurred.
     • Location:
       • Where the traffic rule violation was captured (specific intersection or area).
     • Fine amount:
       • The monetary penalty imposed for the violation.
     • Status:
       • Whether the challan has been paid or is still pending.
2. Verify the information:
   • Review all the details carefully to ensure that the violations are accurate. Mistakes can sometimes happen, so if you notice any discrepancies, you may need to contact the relevant authorities.

Step 7: Pay the E-Challan (if applicable)

If your vehicle has an unpaid challan, you can make the payment directly from the website.

Here’s how you can do it:

1. Click on the “Pay Now” option:
   • If there’s an unpaid challan, you will see a “Pay Now” button next to the challan details. Click on this to proceed to the payment gateway.
2. Choose a payment method:
   • You will be given various options to pay your E-Challan, such as:
     • Credit/Debit Card:
       • You can enter your card details to pay the fine.
     • Net Banking:
       • Directly link to your bank account through net banking options.
     • UPI/Wallet Payments:
       • Some platforms may also support payment through mobile wallets or UPI-based apps.
3. Complete the payment:
   • After choosing the payment method, proceed to pay the fine. Once the payment is successful, you will receive a payment confirmation on your screen.
4. Download the receipt:
   • It’s advisable to download or print the payment receipt for your records. The receipt serves as proof that you’ve cleared the fine.

Step 8: Verify Payment and Status

1. Check the payment status:
   • After making the payment, you can check the status of your E-Challan again to confirm that it has been marked as Paid. If the status hasn’t been updated immediately, don’t panic; it may take a few hours or days for the system to reflect the updated status.
2. Revisit the E-Challan page:
   • If you want to verify later, you can revisit the E-Challan page and enter your vehicle number to ensure the payment has been processed.

Step 9: Get SMS or Email Confirmation

1. Receive a notification:
   • After successful payment, you might receive an SMS or email confirmation. This confirmation contains your transaction details and serves as further proof of payment.
2. Store the confirmation:
   • Keep the confirmation safe in case you need to present it in the future, particularly during vehicle registration renewals or inspections.
