Decode WB20 number plates and run RC, owner and challan checks for Barasat.
Every Indian vehicle registration begins with a state code followed by a two-digit RTO number. The prefix WB20 is assigned to the Barasat Regional Transport Office in West Bengal. Any vehicle whose number plate starts with WB20 was originally registered here, which also means its RC file, fitness record and challan history sit with this office.
A typical WB20 plate looks like WB20 AB 1234. The first two letters (WB) are the state, the next two digits identify the Barasat 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 WB20 vehicles generally carry later series letters.
WB20AB1234.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 Barasat vehicle, the plate should start with WB20 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.
