Challan Desk
Every e-challan, the day it's issued, on the right driver's name.
ANPR and speed cameras now write challans without anyone stopping the truck. PRACHSO checks every vehicle daily, matches each challan's time and place to the trip and the driver, and tracks it to payment or virtual-court disposal.

Attribution
Who was driving at 14:37 on NH 44?
A camera challan names the vehicle, not the driver. PRACHSO answers the question with the records you already have, and shows how it got the answer, so the driver can see it is fair.
- 1
Read the challan's time and place
From the e-challan record: date, time, location, offence, section and amount, and the camera image where the notice carries one. - 2
Find the trip
From the PRACHSO trip log the munshi keeps, your GPS provider's trip export, or FASTag toll crossings on either side of the camera. - 3
Assign the driver on duty
The driver on that trip gets the challan on his name and a WhatsApp message in his language. If two drivers could fit, the munshi picks. - 4
Track it to the end
Paid, sent to virtual court, contested or disposed, with each change dated. Nothing sits unread until the RTO blocks the vehicle.
Status tracking
From the camera to the court, every state has a next step.
| Status | What it means | What PRACHSO does |
|---|---|---|
| Pending | Issued, not yet paid or contested | Driver and owner told the same day. Due date shown. |
| Paid online | Paid on the official e-challan system | Receipt filed against the challan and the driver. |
| Sent to virtual court | Unpaid challans may be forwarded to a virtual court | Hearing and fine tracked. RTO services for the vehicle may be held while it is pending. |
| Contested | You or your advocate dispute the offence | Evidence folder ready: trip record, photos, the document valid on that date. |
| Disposed | Closed by payment or court order | Kept in the history for the driver and the vehicle. |
Penalties are set by the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 as amended in 2019: for example, driving without a valid PUC is up to ₹10,000 under Section 190(2) of the Motor Vehicles Act. States can set different compounding amounts. Payment is made on the official e-challan system; PRACHSO does not pay or contest challans for you. See the challan guide.
Fleet challan report

Overloading on the Indore to Dewas run is most of this month's bill. That is a loading-point conversation, not a driver one.
Recovery ledger
Only where your written policy allows it.
If the fleet's policy says drivers bear fines for offences in their control, the ledger records each deduction against the challan, and the driver is told on WhatsApp with the challan details first. By default, a fine for a paper the office let lapse is marked as an office cost, not the driver's.

Does PRACHSO pay challans for us?
No. Payment is made on the official e-challan system, and contests go to the court. PRACHSO tracks the status, keeps the evidence and records who paid.
How is a challan matched to a driver?
By the challan's time and place against the trip record: the PRACHSO trip log, your GPS data or FASTag toll crossings. If two drivers could fit, the challan waits for the munshi to pick one.
Can we recover the fine from the driver?
Only where your fleet's written policy allows it. The recovery ledger records the deduction and the driver is told on WhatsApp, with the challan details.
Why do unpaid challans matter?
Unpaid challans can be sent to a virtual court, and pending challans can hold up RTO services for the vehicle, such as transfer or permit work. Seeing them the day they are issued keeps that from piling up.
