The full journey, handled end to end in one package.
In short
The combined learner's plus driving licence service takes you from your first LL through to the permanent smart-card DL in one package. Because Indian law requires a 30-day gap between the two, the full process usually takes 55 to 70 working days and needs two RTO visits.
New to driving? This is the complete package — we take you from your very first learner's licence all the way to the permanent smart-card driving licence.
One file, one team, two RTO visits. We handle the paperwork, both test slots and all the follow-up so you don't have to track anything.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the whole process take?
Typically 55–70 working days, since there's a mandatory 30-day gap between the learner's and permanent licence.
Do I have to visit the RTO?
Yes — once for the learner's online test and once for the driving test. We book both slots and prepare your file in advance.
Is it cheaper to get the learner's and driving licence together?
Yes. Our combined LL plus DL package at ₹1,999 is better value than filing each separately, and you get a single point of contact for both RTO tests and all follow-up.
Why is there a 30-day gap between the learner's and driving licence?
The Motor Vehicles rules require you to hold a learner's licence for a minimum of 30 days before applying for the permanent licence, so you have time to practise on the road legally.
