How to Find Vehicle Owner Name by Number Plate

Need to know who a vehicle is registered to? You can find the owner name by number plate online — useful before buying a used vehicle, after a hit-and-run, or to verify a seller.

Last updated: October 2026

The name on a vehicle's Registration Certificate (RC) is the legal owner recorded by the RTO. When you only have the number plate, you can still look up this owner information online — TrueVahanInfo matches the number plate to its RTO record and shows you the registered owner in seconds.

Steps to find the owner name

  1. Open the TrueVahanInfo app.
  2. Type the number plate, e.g. GJ05CD6789.
  3. Tap Search.
  4. See the owner name, ownership serial and full vehicle report.
