Last Updated: 10 May 2026 | By Sanjeev Kumar | Category: Automobiles

Hamare reader Mandeep Singh — jo Ludhiana mein rehte hain — unhone message kiya: “Bhai, driving licence ke liye RTO gaya tha, 3 ghante line mein khada raha, phir bola gaya ‘aaj number nahi aayega, kal aao.’ Kya ghar se online nahi ho sakta?” Bilkul ho sakta hai — aur 2026 mein process pehle se kaafi simple ho gayi hai. Aaj poori step by step guide deta hoon jisse aap ghar baithe driving licence ke liye apply kar sako — minimum RTO visits ke saath.

Pehle Samjho — Kaunse Licence Ke Liye Kya Process Hai

Driving licence do stages mein milta hai. Pehle Learner’s Licence (LL) banta hai — yeh ghar se fully online ho sakta hai. Phir 30 din baad Permanent Driving Licence (DL) ke liye apply hota hai — iske liye driving test dena hota hai jo abhi bhi RTO pe jaake dena padta hai. Lekin documents submission, slot booking, fees — yeh sab online ho jaata hai ab. RTO mein sirf driving test ke liye jaana padta hai.

Learner’s Licence Online Apply — Step by Step

Step 1: Sarathi Portal Pe Account Banao

sarathi.parivahan.gov.in pe jaao — yeh transport ministry ka official portal hai. Apna state select karo. “Apply for Learner Licence” pe click karo. Aadhaar number se register karo — OTP aayega registered mobile pe. Account ban jaayega.

Step 2: Form Fill Karo

Personal details fill karo — naam, date of birth, address exact Aadhaar ke hisaab se likhna hai. Vehicle category choose karo — LMV (car/jeep), MCWG (motorcycle with gear), MCWOG (scooter bina gear). Agar do wheeler aur four wheeler dono ke liye chahiye toh dono select karo — fees ek saath bhar do.

Step 3: Documents Upload Karo

Age proof ke liye Aadhaar, address proof ke liye Aadhaar ya ration card, aur passport size photo upload karo. Photo white background pe honi chahiye aur file size 50KB se kam. Signature bhi upload karna hota hai — white paper pe black ink se sign karke scan karo.

Step 4: Slot Book Karo Aur Fees Bhar Do

Learner’s licence test ke liye slot book karo — ab kaafi states mein yeh test bhi online ghar se diya ja sakta hai. Fees online pay karo — UPI, debit card, net banking sab chalte hain. LMV ke liye roughly 500-700 rupaye lagti hai fees (state ke hisaab se alag hoti hai).

Step 5: Learner’s Licence Test Do

Test mein traffic signs aur road rules ke 15-20 multiple choice questions hote hain — passing marks usually 60% hote hain. parivahan.gov.in pe mock tests available hain — inhe pehle practice karo. Test pass karne ke baad Learner’s Licence download ho jaata hai — print karo ya phone mein save karo.

Permanent Driving Licence — Kaise Milega

Learner’s Licence milne ke 30 din baad (aur 180 din ke andar) Permanent DL ke liye apply karo. Sarathi portal pe jaao, “Apply for Driving Licence” select karo. Driving test slot book karo RTO pe — yeh test actual car ya bike pe hota hai. Test pass karne ke baad DL 7-10 din mein registered address pe post ho jaata hai. DigiLocker mein bhi digital DL available hota hai jo legally valid hai.

Zaroori Documents Ki List

• Age proof: Aadhaar Card, Birth Certificate, 10th marksheet
• Address proof: Aadhaar Card, Ration Card, Electricity Bill (3 mahine se purana nahi)
• Photo: Passport size, white background, recent
• Medical certificate: Form 1A — kisi bhi registered doctor se, 40 saal se upar wale ke liye zaroori

“Maine sarathi portal se ghar baithe apply kiya — Learner’s test bhi online diya. Sirf ek baar RTO gaya driving test ke liye. 10 din mein DL ghar aa gaya. RTO ke chakkar nahi kaatne pade.” — Mandeep Singh, Ludhiana (reader feedback, naam permission se)
