r/RTO

Hey everyone,

I’m buying a new car in Mumbai, but my Aadhaar card still has my hometown address from MP. I currently live in Mumbai in a rented apartment.

The dealer is saying:

• Either I pay around ₹5,000 as “adjustment charges”
• Or I personally visit the RTO office to handle it

I’m honestly not sure:

• What exactly this charge is for
• Whether this is a legitimate charge or just dealership convenience fees
• Whether this situation is common

Has anyone gone through something similar?

• What did you do in your case?
• Did you pay or handle it yourself?
• Any issues with registration because of address mismatch?

Would really appreciate guidance from people who’ve dealt with Mumbai RTOs recently.

Thanks!
