3. The BH number series will be available only for private vehicle owners.
4. For vehicle registration under the BH series, road tax has to paid only for 2 years, after which owners can move to another state and pay the applicable tax as per the state policy. In the case of a regular vehicle, one needs to pay the road tax for 15 years.
