Why you need it

When you need it

You own a car in Himachal Pradesh — commonly one running on an All India Tourist Permit or a Contract Carriage Permit — and you want to attach it to a taxi union, operators' co-operative or tour operator so it can ply for hire through their bookings and dispatch. Or you run that union or operator and are taking an owner's vehicle onto your rolls. This agreement records the terms of that attachment: whose vehicle it remains, who bears running cost and statutory compliance, how fares or dues are shared, and how either side can end the arrangement. Not a transfer of the vehicle or of the permit itself — ownership and the permit stay with the Owner throughout. Not for a ride-hailing aggregator relationship governed by its own app terms and, where applicable, the Motor Vehicle Aggregator Guidelines — this is written for the traditional union/operator attachment common at Himachal Pradesh's hill stations.

What follows is written for Himachal Pradesh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

This is a services and commission agreement, not a transfer of any interest in the vehicle or in immovable property, so it is not chargeable with ad valorem stamp duty. It may attract a nominal fixed stamp under the general "Agreement" article of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 as applicable in Himachal Pradesh — confirm the current article and value, if any is in fact chargeable, before assuming a bare signed copy is insufficient.

Registration

Not compulsorily registrable; it does not fall within s.17 of the Registration Act, 1908. Keep signed copies with both the Owner and the Union.

Notarisation

Not legally required, but notarising the agreement, or at minimum having it signed before the two witnesses below, gives it more weight if a dispute over dues or termination later needs to be proved.

Witnesses

Two witnesses are recommended, though not compulsory for a document of this kind.
