Gurugram to Ban New Petrol, Diesel Light Goods Vehicle Registrations from July 2027
Starting July 1, 2027, Gurugram will ban registrations of new petrol, diesel, and CNG-powered light and medium goods vehicles up to 7,500 kg, following Delhi's January 2027 deadline. The ban excludes heavy trucks and applies across the National Capital Region by 2028. Only electric light goods vehicles will be allowed for registration thereafter. This phased move aims to improve air quality but poses higher upfront costs for small transporters and MSMEs reliant on these vehicles, while larger logistics firms may adapt faster. Industrial areas in south Haryana and NCR are expected to feel significant impacts.
