What to know

  • Delhi's vehicle-entry curbs under revised GRAP rules take effect November 1 and run through at least January 31, 2027.
  • Non-BS-VI vehicles, diesel buses, outstation trucks and tractors are barred from entering the city; border checks use ANPR and RFID technology.
  • The revised GRAP triggers stages based on AQI forecasts rather than waiting for actual thresholds to be breached, following AQI's jump from 179 to 244 in late October.
  • Accompanying measures include a construction halt, doubled parking fees, a 50% office attendance cap and traffic rerouting away from the city.
