Why is the HSRP important?
A High Security Registration Plate is a chromium-based hologram which is applied by hot stamping on the number plates and is affixed at both the front and back of the vehicle besides laser-branding of a permanent identification number.
HSRPs come equipped with some security features and cannot be counterfeited. The plates are fastened with the help of non-removable snap locking fitting system, they are also non-reusable so if someone breaks it off, they will not be able to fit the number plate on other vehicles.
Close to 300 dealerships of original equipment manufacturers have been brought on this online platform of HSRP suppliers and this will offer the vehicle owners the adequate options for HSRP and sticker affixation.
