Assam (RTO code AS, capital Dispur) follows the central MV Act 2019 penalty schedule. Guwahati — the largest city in the Northeast — is the main focus of enforcement, with camera-based challaning expanding on its busier routes.
Fine amounts here track the national baseline for most offences. Use the table below to confirm the exact Assam penalty and MV Act section before you pay.
About these amounts
The figures below are the penalties prescribed by the central Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 as amended in 2019, which apply across India. We do not currently hold a verified compounding-fee notification issued specifically by Assam, so no state-level variation is shown here.
Under Section 200 of the Act, a State Government may notify its own compounding amounts, and several states charge more or less than the central figure for the same offence. Treat this table as the statutory baseline and confirm the amount actually payable with the Assam transport department or on your challan before paying.
