Delhi will ban non-Bharat Stage VI commercial vehicles registered outside the city from Nov 1, allowing BS-IV vehicles until Oct 31, 2026, to reduce pollution, officials said.
- From November 1, all commercial goods vehicles registered outside Delhi that are not BS‑VI compliant will be barred from entering the national capital, the Commission for Air Quality Management approved on October 17.
- The decision aims to curb rising urban air pollution driven by vehicular emissions, and officials say this year the focus is on tightening emission norms rather than targeting fuel type or vehicle age.
- Prohibited vehicles include light goods vehicles, medium goods vehicles, and heavy goods vehicles, while BS‑IV commercial goods vehicles will be permitted entry up to October 31, 2026 as a transitional measure.
- Transporters urged the government to extend the relaxation and said the All India Motor and Goods Transport Association will hold a meeting next week, while industry representatives warned court action may be needed.
- The notice adds that restrictions under GRAP on commercial goods vehicles will continue, while authorities note BS‑VI compliant vehicles meet stricter standards to curb pollution.
