RTO Form 35: Application for Termination of an Agreement of Hire-Purchase or Lease or Hypothecation

Sometimes automobile owners purchase their vehicles under hire-purchase or lease or hypothecation agreements with Financiers. Here, the name of the Financier remains mentioned on the original Registration Certification (RC). However, after you pay off the loan, you can apply for the termination of the hypothecation by submitting RTO Form 35 to the Registering Authority. The officials will endorse the application and record the cancellation of the agreement in the RC. Fill Form 35 in triplication if the original Registering Authority is different, as the RTO sends a copy of the application to the Initial Registration Authority and the Financier through registered post.
