The winning bid was made through the online portal of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, which hosts weekly auctions from 1 pm to 5 pm for fancy vehicle numbers. The registration number HR88B8888 holds significance: 'HR' represents Haryana, the state where the vehicle is registered; '88' is the Regional Transport Office (RTO) code for Charkhi Dadri district; 'B' is a specific vehicle series code; and '8888' is a unique four-digit number assigned to each vehicle. The winning bidder, a businessman from Badhra sub-division of Charkhi Dadri, revealed that he had not set a specific budget in mind and bid on the number simply because he liked it. He plans to use the number for a vehicle, but has not yet decided which one. The businessman owns a transport business and is developing a mobile app for commercial transportation. The bidding process required a participation fee of ₹1,000 and a security deposit of ₹10,000. The bidder has five days to deposit the bid amount, after which the number will be allotted if the process is completed."
