About RTO code WB06

Every Indian vehicle registration begins with a state code followed by a two-digit RTO number. The prefix WB06 is assigned to the Kolkata West Regional Transport Office in West Bengal. Any vehicle whose number plate starts with WB06 was originally registered here, which also means its RC file, fitness record and challan history sit with this office.

How to decode a WB06 number plate

A typical WB06 plate looks like WB06 AB 1234. The first two letters (WB) are the state, the next two digits identify the Kolkata West RTO, the following one or two letters are the running series, and the last four digits are the unique vehicle number. When a series is exhausted the RTO moves to the next letter pair, so newer WB06 vehicles generally carry later series letters.

How to check RC details for a WB06 vehicle

  1. Copy the full plate exactly as printed, for example WB06AB1234.
  2. Run the RC details lookup to confirm registration status, make, model, fuel type, insurance and PUC validity.
  3. Run the vehicle owner lookup and match the registered owner name against the seller's ID.
  4. Finish with an e-challan check — unpaid West Bengal fines transfer to you along with the vehicle.

Buying a used vehicle registered at Kolkata West

A mismatch between the RTO on the plate and the seller's stated location is one of the most common warning signs in an Indian used-vehicle deal. If a car is advertised as a local Kolkata West vehicle, the plate should start with WB06 and the RC record should show West Bengal as the registering state. Re-registration in another state requires an NOC, so ask for that paperwork whenever the two do not line up.
