GVWR is the total combined weight of a truck, including all passengers, fuel, fluids, and cargo. 

If the commercial vehicle net weight is 2010 Kg then minimum license GVW is 3015 Kg.

List of Different Types of Vehicle Weight :

• Gross vehicle weight (GVW) - This weight includes all your cargo, extra added equipment, and passengers aboard.
• Curb weight - This is the weight of your vehicle with all fluids and components but without the drivers, passengers, and cargo.
• Payload - The payload is the weight including passengers, equipment, cargo, and anything being towed.

Gross vehicle weight rating - curb weight = payload capacity
