Private vehicles will get white font on a green background and commercial ones will bear yellow font on a green background.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has stated that all battery-operated vehicles will feature a green registration mark. Private vehicles will bear white fonts on a green background on the number plate and commercial vehicles will have a yellow font on a green background.

In May 2018, the Central government approved the use of green licence plates bearing numbers in white fonts for private electric vehicles (EVs) and yellow for taxis.

Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Shipping, Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, added that distinctive number plates allow for easy identification for EVs, so they can avail preferential treatment in parking and free entry in congested zones among other proposed benefits like concessional toll.
