This is engraved on the left hand side just below the words IND with laser. This is a sequential identification of individual license plates across the country. It is laser engraved below the top surface of the reflective sheet and hence cannot be erased. This number is attached to the existing data of a particular vehicle in the Govt’s Database. This number also helps in verifying the genuineness of the plate.
