High Security Registration Plates (HSRP) are mandatory for all motor vehicles registered across the state of Odisha. Mandated by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and strictly enforced by the State Transport Authority (STA) Odisha, HSRP plates are engineered with tamper-proof security features to prevent vehicle theft, curb registration counterfeiting, and standardize digital vehicle records across the national Vahan database.

Under Section 192 of the amended Motor Vehicles Act, plying a vehicle on public roads without an official HSRP number plate attracts compounding fines ranging from ₹5,000 to ₹10,000.
