Absolutely not required as you said the car belongs to year 2006 model. Actually after the initial registration you are allowed for three free renewals. i.e. the first one at 2007, the second one at 2008, and the third one at 2009. For year 2010 you have to obtain vehicle inspection before you proceed for Isthamara. All this is subject to no claim against your covered type of Insurance for the vehicle.

As per the information any major claim of insurance, the vehicle has to go for inspection.

Still you can check up with traffic Dept. directly for more clarification.
