Haryana: No further diesel, petrol vehicles in aggregator fleets from January 1

A clean mobility portal is also being developed by the transport department, in which details of all vehicles of the licence holders will be recorded; the aim is to reduce pollution in NCR

The cabinet approved the aggregator policy of the transport department, in accordance with the guidelines of the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. An official spokesperson said under the new rules, motor vehicle aggregators, delivery service providers and e-commerce companies will not be permitted to include any vehicle running solely on diesel or petrol in their existing fleets with effect from January 1, 2026.

The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), under Section 12 of the Commission for Air Quality Management in National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas Act, 2021, issued direction number 94 on June 3, 2025. The objective is to rapidly promote cleaner mobility in such services

As per these directions, only CNG or electric three-wheelers will be permitted to be included in the existing vehicle fleets. Further, with effect from January 1, 2026, no diesel or petrol-run vehicles will be allowed to be added to the existing fleets of four-wheeler LCVs, four-wheeler LGVs (N1 category – up to 3.5 tonnes) and two-wheelers.

In accordance with the commission’s directions, a clean mobility portal is also being developed by the transport department, in which details of all vehicles of the licence holders will be recorded. Under the new rules, all fees and conditions for grant and renewal of licences shall be as per the guidelines of the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. This will help reduce pollution in the NCR and improve air quality.

For all other permits, including stage carriage, contract carriage, goods carriage and school buses in the NCR region, maximum permissible age has been fixed at 15 years for vehicles operating on petrol, CNG, electric or other clean fuels, and 10 years for diesel vehicles.
