Applicable Traffic Law in Chandigarh
Traffic offences in Chandigarh are primarily governed by the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, as amended by the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019, together with applicable Central Motor Vehicles Rules, traffic regulations, government notifications and local enforcement orders.
The exact offence, penalty, compounding amount and court status should be verified from the challan and official portal because the amount can vary according to the statutory provision, applicable notification, repeat offence, vehicle category and case status.

Payment Deducted but Chandigarh Challan Status Not Updated?
If the payment amount is deducted from your bank account but the eChallan status is not updated, avoid making an immediate second payment. First save the bank confirmation, transaction reference, payment receipt or screenshot of the successful transaction.
Recheck the challan on the official portal after some time. If the status continues to show unpaid, use the grievance or help facility available on the eChallan portal or contact the relevant traffic authority with the challan number and payment details.
