Delhi is set to impose restrictions on the entry of vehicles that do not meet BS-VI emission norms from November 1, 2026. Multiple outlets report that the curbs run through January 31, 2027, as part of winter pollution-control efforts.

Reports say vehicles registered outside Delhi that fall short of BS-VI are subject to the ban, while some categories are exempt. Times of India and NDTV highlight limits affecting large numbers of vehicles across the NCR region, with specific references to exemptions for BS-VI-compliant vehicles as well as CNG and electric vehicles in some coverage.

Outlets also differ in added operational details. One Times of India report discusses routing requirements for certain trucks and mentions bans for particular interstate diesel buses that do not meet BS-VI standards. Another Times of India story adds that Delhi is expecting impact on more than 10 lakh vehicles and cites metro service increases to encourage public transport.
