The Federation Internationale de l' Automobile, the international federation for 4 wheeler motorsports transfered back their Sporting Power (ASN - status) to the Government of India's recognized National Sports Federation viz. The Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India (FMSCI) from July 1, 2008.

There has been many queries from the competitors who had their licenses issued by the then ASN, i.e. MAI with regard to the status of their licenses and the procedure to be followed to get FMSCI license.

The FMSCI has now made available the application forms for various 4 wheeler licenses for download from its website www.fmsci.in under Application section. The same can also be downloaded from your indmotorsport.com.

On going thru the forms and the tariff, it is clear that the FMSCI had retained the structure to avoid any confusion to the competitors.

A note on the tariff also state that holders of 2008 MAI license holders may return the same xerox copy to the FMSCI along with duly completed appropriate application form & indemnity form with one passport stamp size photograph to the FMSCI. The FMSCI will then issue its license to the applicants. This license is issued FREE OF COST . This is done with a view that competitors should not be asked to pay again for the license, for no fault of theirs.

To clarify, if you have a Rally Driver's License & Rally Entrant's License, you need to download the 4W Rally license application & Entrant Application form and the indemnity forms, fill it up, attach 2 photographs (one for the driver & one for the entrant) and send it to the FMSCI along with the original xerox copy of MAI Drivers & Entrant licenses to enable FMSCI to issue their licenses. The same procedure may be followed for racing & karting licenses as well.

** Since changed
