The Nagpur City Police stolen-vehicle page publishes available stolen-vehicle information. For case-specific progress, the FIR number and the investigating police station remain important because an online list is not a substitute for the police investigation record.

Report the theft to the nearest police station or the police station having jurisdiction over the place of theft. For an emergency, call 112.

Current law on vehicle theft

The new criminal laws came into force on 1 July 2024. For present-day offences, the relevant substantive law is the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS), while criminal procedure is governed by the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS).

BNS Section 303 - Theft: defines the offence of theft of movable property.

BNS Section 305 - Theft of a means of transport: specifically covers theft of a means of transport used for carrying goods or passengers and provides punishment that may extend to seven years, along with fine.

BNSS Section 173 - Information in cognizable cases: governs the giving and recording of information relating to cognizable offences.

Section 173 BNSS permits information about a cognizable offence to be given to the officer in charge of a police station irrespective of the area where the offence was committed, and also recognises electronic communication subject to the statutory requirements.

Important: Merely checking an online stolen-vehicle list does not amount to lodging an FIR. Vehicle theft should be formally reported to the police so that the criminal investigation and recovery process can begin.
