Driving School permit - Transfer.

Transport Commissioner, Chennai has issued a circular viz. 25/09, in which it has been pointed out that after the death of the owner of a driving school , the licence granted to the owner could be transferred to the legal heirs.

The circular further states that if the legal heir fulfils the qualifications as laid down under Rule 24 of the Central Motor vehicles Rules, then there is no bar in transferring the licence to the legal heir.

The High Court Chennai in its judgement in W P no. 29797/08 has observed that the Licensing Authority shall examine the claim of the legal heir , and if the legal heir fufils the qualifications, then the licence could be transferred.

So the Authority which granted the licence could consider if such a request comes to them.

The points for consideration is
a. What is the fees to be collected for such a transfer. Since no fees is prescribed for transfer, we have to collect the fee prescribed for issue of licence.

b. Whether the school should be as per new guidelines. Not necessary . We are not issuing any new licence. We only transfer the existing licence. So new guidelines will not be applicable.
