RonakG 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 Yesterday I saw an SUV (don't remember which) on Richmond road in Bangalore, which had a number 11-CD-50. The number plate was light blue color with white fonts. Anybody has any idea what kind of number is it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RonakG 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 Wow. Thanks for the explanation Vivek. So, how many different types of number plats are there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
viveksonkhla 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 There are different number plates based on the nature of the usage of the vehicle.... In India as far as I know..we have following catagories: 1. Private number plates 2. Commercial number plates(for Taxis, Buses, Trucks and all sorts of commercial vehicles) 3. Number plates for Defence and allied forces(did you ever notice strange numbers mentioned or army/navy/air force vehicles) 3. Diplomatic number plates(for Foreign missions/UN Missions) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, if I remember correctly CC plates used to be bright yellow while CD plates are light blue sgiitk2009-02-10 08:04:52 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
