Driving Licence Test Fees & Charges in India

Driving licence fees in India are set by each state's transport department, so the exact amount you pay depends on where you apply — but the fee structure is broadly similar everywhere.

What the fee usually covers

A Learner's Licence application fee, a separate fee for the driving test itself, and a smartcard/licence issuance fee once you pass. Some states bundle these into a single online payment; others collect them in stages.

Where to find the exact amount

Because fees are revised periodically and differ by state and vehicle class, the most reliable source is your state RTO's official fee notification or the Parivahan portal's payment screen, which calculates the exact amount for your application before you pay.
