Only these people are allowed to apply black film to their car windows. Learn the rules and fines.

Black Film on Car Windows: Black film on cars is banned for most people. This exemption is available only to select individuals. Other vehicles face heavy fines for violating the rules.

While driving on the roads, you see many different types of cars. Sometimes, you may notice various features on some cars. Sometimes, you may even see black glass on some cars. But then you realize that this is prohibited.

People are often confused about applying black film to their cars. Private cars are not allowed to apply dark tints. Only transparent film with a limited amount is acceptable. If black film is found during police checks, a fine is issued.

Then, people wonder which vehicles have black film installed. Do they receive any special permission for this? So, let me tell you, black film is permitted for vehicles with specific safety requirements.

This includes high-profile government officials, judges, certain police officers, and those with Z and Z+ security. Dark tint is applied to these vehicles only after the recommendation of a security agency and government approval.

For vehicles owned by ordinary citizens, regulations require 70 percent visibility on the front and rear windshields. 50 percent visibility is required on the side glass. Film with less transparency than this is considered illegal. This rule is implemented to maintain security and law and order.

The fine for black film depends on the city and the severity of the offense. Typically, the first fine ranges from 500 to 1000 rupees. This amount increases significantly if the vehicle is caught again. In many cases, repeated violations can even result in the vehicle being seized.

Traffic police now conduct special drives, from highways to cities, to remove vehicles with black film. These drives are also conducted randomly. If illegal film is found on a vehicle, it is removed on the spot. This also wastes time and you may have to pay extra fine.
