Hi,

1) You must be well enlightened that as long as the vehicle remains registered in your name you will be held responsible for any blow or illegal activities the car may be used for.

ii. The delivery note can partly protect you in example of a legal result, however it won't dissolve you from responsibilities/liabilities.

three. Inform the buyer to have the vehicle registered in his name or whatsoever ane he is going to sell information technology to immediately or you will be constrained to complain to the constabulary.

4) You can launch a police force complaint and give a re-create to the buyer agent and ship a copy to the RTO function at the aforementioned time.The heir-apparent will comply for sure to stay free of farther legal hassles.

i. The ownership to a vehicle flows out of the registration document thereof. Yous go along to remain the possessor of the vehicle for all legal and practical reasons unless and until the registration certificate of vehicle has been transferred in favour of the buyer.

2. If tomorrow he runs a person down under the vehicle you sold to him so runs abroad the police will launch a manhunt to arrest you. Furthermore, you lot will be liable to compensate the victim's family members if he dies or the victim if he survives.

3. At the time of selling your car, you would have obtained a delivery receipt from the heir-apparent. This receipt is proof of your having sold the motorcar to the buyer at a consideration, but this is non proof of ownership of the vehicle.

iv. You must exist having copies of the forms and the R.C. Book which were required to be executed by you while yous had sold the vehicle. It is your legal obligation under section l of the Motor Vehicle Human action that y'all send a registered letter to the concerned R.T.O. informing that you lot have sold the vehicle to such a such person ( give his address and telephone contact number) and accept handed over the R.C. Book to such purchaser, in which result when any traffic offence is done by him the constabulary volition check on with the records of the vehicle from the R.T.O which would reveal the new proper name of the purchaser. See an agent who does such R.T.O. related work.
