Karnataka status proof checked 23 September 2026: Karnataka Transport's official Parivahan Online Services directory includes Know your License Details, while Sakala tracks guaranteed state-service applications by Sakala number. Use the national DL-status/Know Licence route for an issued KA licence and Sakala only when the user has a Sakala acknowledgement.
Karnataka-specific resolution: a KA DL number checks the licence record; a Sarathi application number checks the licence transaction; a Sakala number checks the state service request. Do not interchange these identifiers.
Open Karnataka Parivahan Services · Check Issued DL Status
Use the official national status form for an issued KA licence. Enter the DL number and DOB; do not use the Sakala/Sarathi application number in the DL field.
Which Karnataka Tracker?
| Question | Correct route |
|---|---|
| Is the issued DL active and what classes/dates apply? | DL Status |
| Is my new/renewal/duplicate transaction approved? | Karnataka Application Status |
| Has the physical card been dispatched? | Application/dispatch status and consignment tracking |
| Can I display the licence digitally? | DigiLocker or mParivahan |
Karnataka's Sakala page lists service timelines, but a generic timeline does not override an objection, missing document, failed payment or test stage. Use the actual application result when resolving a delay.
